Add EPC QR Codes to invoices

European Payments Council Quick Response Code, or EPC QR Code, are two-dimensional barcodes that customers can scan with their mobile banking applications to initiate a SEPA Credit Transfer (SCT), and pay their invoices instantly.

In addition to bringing ease of use and speed, it greatly reduces typing errors that would potentially make for payment issues.

Configuration

Go to Accounting ‣ Configuration ‣ Settings and activate the SEPA QR Code feature.

Configure your Bank Account’s journal

Make sure that your Bank Account is correctly configured on Odoo with your IBAN and BIC.

To do so, go to Accounting ‣ Configuration ‣ Journals, open your bank journal, then fill out the Bank Account and Bank under the Bank Account tab.

Issue Invoices with EPC QR Codes

EPC QR Codes are added automatically to your invoices, as long as you issue them to customers that are located in a country where this feature is available.

Go to Accounting ‣ Customers ‣ Invoices, and create a new invoice.

Before posting it, open the Other Info tab. Odoo automatically fills out the Bank Account field with your IBAN.

Make sure that the account indicated is the one you want to use to receive your customer’s payment as Odoo uses this field to generate the EPC QR Code.
