Hi,

I am trying to set-up a recurring physical box subscription product for my company. Each month we will deliver a box with cosmetic products or candles to the subcribers. 

Subscriptions are very difficult to test. 

My questions are the following:

1/ We would like to set the start date for the subscription on a fixed date and not on the date of the order (eg for every subscription purchased in November, start date for the subscription would be 1st of December) so that all invoices and delivery orders are generated at the same time --> Is this feasible in standard V19 on the ecommerce?
I see there is a field subscription_start_date on the sales order --> can we set it up in a way so that a subscriber from the website is invoiced on the 1st day of the following month? 


2/ Is each invoice generated supposed to generate an associated delivery order automatically?

Hi,
Please refer to the code:
from datetime import date, timedelta

def _get_next_month_first():
    today = date.today()
    next_month = today.replace(day=28) + timedelta(days=4)
    return next_month.replace(day=1)

class SaleOrder(models.Model):
    _inherit = 'sale.order'

    def action_confirm(self):
        res = super().action_confirm()

        for order in self:
            if order.is_subscription:   # Subscription product in order
                order.subscription_start_date = _get_next_month_first()

        return res

This code automatically sets the subscription start date to the first day of the next month when a sale order is confirmed. The function _get_next_month_first() calculates the next month’s first day by taking today’s date, forcing it to the 28th (a safe day for all months), adding four days to jump into the next month, and then replacing the day with 1. The SaleOrder model overrides the action_confirm() method so that after the normal Odoo confirmation process runs, it checks whether the order contains subscription products using order.is_subscription. If it does, Odoo updates order.subscription_start_date with the calculated date. This ensures that all subscriptions created in the current month start on the first day of the following month, aligning invoicing and deliveries for subscription-based physical products.

Hope it helps.
