How Customer Monthly Statement Automation Works
The Customer Monthly Smart Statement Auto Send module follows a simple and automated workflow. Once the administrator configures the statement date, Odoo automatically handles the remaining process.
On the configured day of the month, the scheduled cron job starts automatically. The system collects customer account information, generates a detailed statement report, converts it into a PDF document, and sends it to the customer's registered email address.
This automated workflow eliminates manual effort and ensures that customers consistently receive their account statements on time. Businesses no longer need to spend hours preparing reports or sending individual emails, allowing staff to focus on more productive tasks.

Businesses can strengthen their cash flow management while maintaining professional communication with customers throughout the payment cycle.
