Odoo Mail Attachments

Attach and Send Documents Directly From Any Odoo Record

Sending an invoice, purchase order, or sale order by email without the actual document attached means a follow-up every time. Odoo Mail Attachments fixes that by letting you attach documents to emails sent directly from any Odoo record, so the file travels with the message the first time, every time.

Why Does Your Team Need an Odoo Mail Attachment Module?

When staff send emails from within Odoo — whether confirming a sale order, dispatching a purchase order, or sharing an invoice — the relevant document should go with it automatically. Without a dedicated Odoo mail attachment module, that step relies on manual file selection or a separate email client. Odoo Mail Attachments removes that gap by adding native attachment functionality to the Odoo mail composer, so attaching documents to emails in Odoo becomes a built-in part of the workflow rather than an afterthought.

Key Features of Odoo Mail Attachments

Attach Documents to Emails From Odoo Records

What It Does

Adds the ability to attach existing documents to outgoing emails sent from any Odoo record.

Why It Matters

Staff no longer need to download a file and re-attach it in a separate email client — the Odoo email attachments workflow stays entirely inside Odoo.

Works Across Multiple Record Types

What It Does

Supports sending attachments with Odoo emails from sale orders, purchase orders, invoices, and other standard record types.

Why It Matters

A single Odoo mail attachment module covers the most common document-sending scenarios without needing separate setups per module.

Existing Attachment Linking

What It Does

Links existing files already attached to a record so they can be selected and sent with the outgoing email.

Why It Matters

Avoids re-uploading files that are already stored on the record, saving time and reducing duplication.

Benefits of Odoo Mail Attachments

Fewer Follow-Up Emails

Sending attachments with Odoo emails the first time removes the back-and-forth of "could you send that document again."

Cleaner Document Workflows

Odoo record email attachments stay tied to the right context — the sale order, invoice, or purchase order — rather than existing only in a separate inbox thread.

Saves Time for Staff

Attaching documents to emails in Odoo takes seconds from within the record, compared to switching to an external email client.

Works Without Extra Setup

The module adds attachment functionality to the existing Odoo mail composer without requiring separate configuration per module or record type.

Step 1: Install the Module

Step 2: Open a Record and Compose an Email

Step 3: Select the Attachment

Choose from existing files already attached to that record to include them with the outgoing message.

Step 4: Send the Email With the Attachment

Send the email — the selected document travels with it, completing the Odoo invoice email attachment or purchase order email attachment workflow in one step.

For product documentation that customers can download from the storefront rather than receiving by email, Odoo Website Attachments covers that direction.

When multiple files need to be collected from customers through the website, Multiple Files Upload Widget handles that front-end use case. Together, these modules give teams a more complete, connected document handling experience throughout Odoo.
