[16.0][IMP] subscription_oca: recurrent payment

[adasatorres]

This implementation adds an option in the template to create the invoice and automatically create the payment, using the last payment token used by the customer.

[chrisandrewmann]

@adasatorres I did a quick test on runbot.

1. Using "Azure Interior, Brandon Freeman", create saved payment token using "Demo" payment provider
2. Create Subscription Template (monthly), setting the Invoicing Mode to "Invoice & Recurring Payment"
3. Create new Subscription and add a product
4. Manually run the scheduled action "Subscriptions Management"
5. Error thrown below

Hi @chrisandrewmann, I followed the steps you mentioned to try to reproduce the error, but it doesn’t generate any error for me.

I’m attaching some screenshots:

@adasatorres Sorry, not sure then.
Did you use the "base" runbot build? I think I used this one and installed only the subscription_oca module afterwards.
Otherwise not sure.

@chrisandrewmann I’ve been reviewing the base runboat instance, and it seems that the error you were getting was caused by an issue when generating the invoice. I created a new subscription using the same template, and I also installed the demo provider, which wasn’t configured. Once everything was set up, I triggered the scheduled action button, and it generated all the invoices for the subscriptions.

[chrisandrewmann]

@adasatorres thanks, that's good to know! Did you get around to comparing with my own V18 version of this feature?
Interested if there is anything you would change.

[adasatorres]

Hi @chrisandrewmann, I think the PR in its current state is the most streamlined option available. Personally, I would leave it as it is. I’d like to know your opinion and whether you would change anything, etc.

Hi @adasatorres

My queries would be:

1. How easy will it be to migrate to V17-V19?
2. Does it support retrying failed payments, what happens when it fails?

Suggestions:

1. I think my proposed way of handling payment tokens might be worth considering?
   From the code I sent you, I added a field to the subscription model for payment_token_id as well as the form.
   The benefit is that it allows you to modify the token if it should be different, for example if the customer has multiple saved payment tokens.

    payment_token_id = fields.Many2one(
        comodel_name="payment.token",
        string="Payment Token",
        domain="[('partner_id', '=', partner_id)]",
    )

2. The logic I used to select payment token is different to yours. The benefit I see is that it allows you to set a preference for the payment method on the res.partner record, ensuring that only tokens for that method are available.
   For example the customer may want to pay via Stripe not Paypal but have multiple tokens saved.

    def _get_payment_token(self):
        self.ensure_one()
        active_token = False
        payment_method = self.partner_id.property_inbound_payment_method_line_id
        if payment_method:
            active_token = (
                self.env["payment.token"]
                .sudo()
                .search(
                    [
                        ("provider_id", "=", payment_method.payment_provider_id.id),
                        ("partner_id", "=", self.partner_id.id),
                    ],
                    limit=1,
                    order="write_date desc",
                )
            )
            return active_token

Code review complete. LGTM!

Please consider @chrisandrewmann's suggestions — they make sense and would improve the implementation.

[chrisandrewmann]

@rrebollo @adasatorres

Done some more testing and another point i'd raise is that when confirming invoices in your automated workflow from Subscriptions, the email "Invoice: Sending" is sent to the customer BEFORE payment_state is set to "Paid". This causes it to read as requiring payment (Please remit payment at your earliest convenience).
Rather it should confirm payment, reconcile and THEN send the email to the customer notifying them it is already paid. Otherwise risks the customer paying twice.

[adasatorres]

Hi @chrisandrewmann, I’m implementing the changes you mentioned, but the field property_inbound_payment_method_line_id does not exist in versions 16 and 17.

[chrisandrewmann]

Hi @chrisandrewmann, I’m implementing the changes you mentioned, but the field property_inbound_payment_method_line_id does not exist in versions 16 and 17.

Ok in that case maybe best to use your existing logic as a fallback instead, only if the payment_token_id is not manually set on subscription?

[adasatorres]

Hi, @chrisandrewmann, could you review it again? I’ve implemented the two functionalities you mentioned, ignoring the issue with the res.partner field, which we can implement in Odoo 18+

Thanks @adasatorres, i've just done a quick test and generally looks good. A few issues noted.

Test 1 steps

1. Activate Demo payment provider
2. Create an invoice manually against "Mitchell Admin", pay using portal and "Save Token"
3. Create a new Subscription Template ("Monthly Auto")
4. Create new Subscription
5. Add product
6. Move subscription to "In Progress" state
7. Run the scheduler task
   Issue: Error occurred as payment token was missing. It looks like your code should be setting a default token but isn't?
   Invoice is still generated but payment fails.

Test 2 steps

1. Same steps as before, this time manually setting the Payment Token field on the subscription
2. Run the scheduler
3. Invoice generated and payment successful
   Issue: There is no email sent to the customer after invoice payment is taken, was this intentional? Note I manually sent the email via button instead.

[adasatorres]

Good morning @chrisandrewmann , the issues you mentioned should already be resolved. Right now, if the partner doesn’t have a payment token to use, the invoice is sent for them to pay manually. If they do have a payment token, the invoice is sent but it already appears as paid.

Hi @adasatorres thanks a lot for this. Just tested and looks great to me.
I'll approve it now.

Something I think we should add for future though, is that currently the recurring payment only works for invoices.
It would be great if it can be supported for "Sale Order & Invoice" scenarios, which would be necessary if selling recurring physical goods as an SO is required to generate deliveries.

@yvaucher I wonder if you'd be so kind as to look at this and the related PRs for 17.0 and 18.0?
I saw you were involved in other subscription_oca work. I approved this myself after testing but not had any response for someone who can merge it.

Automated Review -- Tests Failed

1. Root Cause

The test failure occurs because cls.cash_journal is assigned the first result from a search on account.journal with type = 'cash', but no such journal exists in the test environment, causing an IndexError: tuple index out of range.

2. Suggested Fix

In subscription_oca/tests/test_subscription_oca.py, line 29, replace:

cls.cash_journal = cls.env["account.journal"].search(
    [
        ("type", "=", "cash"),
        ("company_id", "=", cls.env.ref("base.main_company").id),
    ]
)[0]

with:

cls.cash_journal = cls.env["account.journal"].search(
    [
        ("type", "=", "cash"),
        ("company_id", "=", cls.env.ref("base.main_company").id),
    ],
    limit=1,
)
if not cls.cash_journal:
    cls.cash_journal = cls.env["account.journal"].create({
        "name": "Cash Journal",
        "type": "cash",
        "company_id": cls.env.ref("base.main_company").id,
        "code": "CASH",
    })

3. Additional Code Issues

• Missing company_id in payment.token creation: In create_payment() method (line 434), payment.token creation lacks company_id, which may cause issues in multi-company setups.
• Hardcoded payment_type in create_payment(): The payment_type is hardcoded to "inbound"; it should be configurable or derived from context, especially for different payment scenarios.

4. Test Improvements

Add a TransactionCase test to verify:

• payment_token_id is correctly computed when invoicing_mode = 'invoice_and_payment'.
• create_payment() fails gracefully when no payment token exists.
• create_payment() fails gracefully when no payment method line is found.
• Invoice and payment are created successfully when all conditions are met.

Use @tagged('post_install', 'manual') for tests that require manual setup or interaction with external systems (e.g., payment providers).
