It allows the automatic sending of invoice to customer that have registered with the service.

Installation
============

This module depends on `base_ebill_payment_contract` which is located on `OCA/account_invoicing`, so this repository must also be present on the system.
This `base_ebill_payment_contract` module depends on `account_invoice_transmit_method` which will also be installed.

Configuration
=============

Create a service
================

To create a service you need to be registred with SIXT Paynet service. Then the configuration of the service can be done in `Accounting - Configuration - Payments - Paynet Service`

Configure the customers
=======================

A customer that wants to receive his invoices through Paynet will also need to register with the service.
In Odoo to enable the sending of invoices for a specific customer through Paynet, the transmit method must be set accordingly for that customer. This is done on the customer form in the tab `Sales & Purchases` section `Sales`.

Configure the contracts
=======================

The contracts specific to e-billing are located in `Accounting - Customers - eBill Payment Contract`
Although the Paynet system allows for automatic exchange of contract registration and status changes, this automation is not yet implemented.
To be active a contract needs to be in the state `Open` and it's start/end dates to be valid.

Usage
=====

To use this module, you need to:

#. Configure the service, customers and contracts as described in the CONFIGURATION section.
#. Create an invoice for a customer with an open Paynet contract.
#. Validate the invoice, and it will be send to the service.

Known issues / Roadmap
======================

To Do
=====

* The B2C invoice generated is only a draft and not tested, yet.
* Invoice in currency other than CHF will not be generated correctly.
* Implementation of the automatic registration of contracts, is not implemented and probably not supported by the DWS

Improvements
============

* On the contract view the list of messages for that contract could be visible.
* When an error is returned by the service it should be clearer where it is located in the payload send.
* In the chatter add a link to the job when it fails

Refactoring
===========

The dependence on `delivery` module could be extracted in a glue module.
For v14 or v15 consider refactoring on top of EDI framework
