What Is Odoo POS Note Templates?

Out of the box, adding a note in Odoo POS means typing free text on every order - slow during a rush, easy to misspell, and inconsistent from one cashier to the next. There's no fast way to apply the same instruction ("no onions," "extra cheese") across orders, and no structured way to flag dietary or allergy requirements so the kitchen sees them clearly.

Odoo POS Note Templates replaces that manual typing with a tap-based note workflow. Staff apply predefined notes and dietary tags from quick chips, attach them to either the full order or an individual order line, and the notes print on the receipt for the kitchen and the customer. A custom text field with a live character counter is still there for one-off requests. Administrators manage every template, tag, and predefined note from configuration - so order notes stay consistent across each POS session.

Key Benefits

One-Tap Notes, No Typing

Apply predefined notes from quick chips with a single tap instead of typing the same instruction on every order.

Order or Order-Line Notes

Attach a note to the whole order or to a single order line, so each item carries its own instruction.

Clear Dietary & Allergy Tags

Color-coded tags such as gluten free, vegan, and extra spicy make special requirements obvious to the kitchen.

Printed on the Receipt

Order notes and predefined notes print on the POS receipt, keeping staff, kitchen, and customer aligned.

Consistent Across Every Session

Standardized note templates keep instructions worded the same way across cashiers and POS sessions.

Admin-Managed Templates

Create, edit, reorder, and color-code templates, tags, and predefined notes from one configuration screen.
