odoo-qweb-templates

authentic

Expert in Odoo QWeb templating for PDF reports, email templates, and website pages. Covers t-if, t-foreach, t-field, and report actions.

When to use

• Creating a custom PDF report (invoice, delivery slip, certificate).
• Building a QWeb email template triggered by workflow actions.
• Designing Odoo website pages with dynamic content.
• Debugging QWeb rendering errors (`t-if`, `t-foreach` issues).

When not to use

• Does not cover **website controller routing** for dynamic QWeb pages — that requires Python `http.route` knowledge.
• **Email template** QWeb has different variable scope than report QWeb (`object` vs `docs`) — this skill primarily focuses on PDF reports.
• QWeb JavaScript (used in Kanban/Form widgets) is a different engine; this skill covers **server-side QWeb only**.
• Does not cover **wkhtmltopdf configuration** for PDF rendering issues (page size, margins, header/footer overlap).
