🧾 Analytical Summary
Odoo 19 makes Subscriptions more flexible to sell and saner to maintain: advanced price lists finally apply to recurring prices, one‑time purchases can coexist with recurring items, and “pause” prevents summer churn while keeping invoicing intact.
💰 Pricing that scales
- Price list rules (discounts/formulas) now affect recurring prices (weekly/monthly/yearly).
- Subscriber price lists via Membership/Partnership: assign perks automatically when a plan starts; remove when churned.
🛒 Sell recurring and one‑off together
- A product can be bought once or as a subscription; savings and plan differences are explained on product pages.
🧾 Invoicing changes
- End‑of‑period invoicing can be triggered earlier with a warning; if later deliveries occur, Odoo prompts a fix.
- Proration can be turned off for membership‑like cases (charge full period even mid‑cycle).
💤 Pause, don’t churn
- Customers can pause subscriptions (e.g., holidays) from the portal; Odoo auto‑resumes and preserves invoicing cadence.
