How to Create Auto Invoice for Cash on Delivery Order in Magento 2 • Devhooks

Creating an auto invoice for Cash On Delivery (COD) orders in Magento 2 requires customisation or extensions, as the default behaviour does not enable automated invoice generating for COD purchases. So, in this article we'll let you now how to create auto invoice for the Cash On Delivery Order In Magento 2.

Let's do it

Before we start I assume, you have already a created custom module. If you don't have it or don't know how to create it then check out our other article How To Create a Magento 2 Module.

Step 1: Create events.xml file at Devhooks/ModuleName/etc/ and paste the below code.

saveCopyzoom_out_map<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Event/etc/events.xsd">
    <event name="checkout_submit_all_after">
        <observer name="checkout_submit_all_after_cod" instance="Devhooks\ModuleName\Observer\Sales\Order\CodOrderAutoInvoice" />
    </event>
</config>

In above code you can see we've used the CodOrderAutoInvoice class in observer instance, you can change it as per your file path.

Step 2: Create CodOrderAutoInvoice.php file at Devhooks/ModuleName/Observer/Sales/Order/ and paste the below code.

saveCopyzoom_out_map<?php

namespace Devhooks\ModuleName\Observer\Sales\Order;

use Magento\Framework\DB\TransactionFactory;
use Magento\Framework\Event\ObserverInterface;
use Magento\Sales\Api\InvoiceRepositoryInterface;
use Magento\Sales\Api\OrderRepositoryInterface;
use Magento\Sales\Model\Order\Invoice;
use Magento\Sales\Model\ResourceModel\Order\Invoice\CollectionFactory;
use Magento\Sales\Model\Service\InvoiceService;

class CodOrderAutoInvoice implements ObserverInterface
{
    private CollectionFactory $invoiceCollectionFactory;
    private InvoiceService $invoiceService;
    private TransactionFactory $transactionFactory;
    private InvoiceRepositoryInterface $invoiceRepository;
    private OrderRepositoryInterface $orderRepository;

    /**
     * @param CollectionFactory $invoiceCollectionFactory
     * @param InvoiceService $invoiceService
     * @param TransactionFactory $transactionFactory
     * @param InvoiceRepositoryInterface $invoiceRepository
     * @param OrderRepositoryInterface $orderRepository
     */
    public function __construct(
        CollectionFactory $invoiceCollectionFactory,
        InvoiceService $invoiceService,
        TransactionFactory $transactionFactory,
        InvoiceRepositoryInterface $invoiceRepository,
        OrderRepositoryInterface $orderRepository
    ) {

        $this->invoiceCollectionFactory = $invoiceCollectionFactory;
        $this->invoiceService = $invoiceService;
        $this->transactionFactory = $transactionFactory;
        $this->invoiceRepository = $invoiceRepository;
        $this->orderRepository = $orderRepository;
    }

    public function execute(\Magento\Framework\Event\Observer $observer)
    {
        $order = $observer->getEvent()->getOrder();
        $orderId = $order->getId();
        $payment = $order->getPayment();
        $method = $payment->getMethodInstance();
        $paymentMethodCode = $method->getCode();
        $allowPaymentMethod = ['cashondelivery']; /* You can add more payment methods code in array. */
        if (in_array($paymentMethodCode, $allowPaymentMethod)) {
            $this->createInvoice($orderId);
        }
    }

    protected function createInvoice($orderId)
    {
        try {
            $order = $this->orderRepository->get($orderId);
            if ($order) {
                $invoices = $this->invoiceCollectionFactory->create()
                    ->addAttributeToFilter('order_id', array('eq' => $order->getId()));

                $invoices->getSelect()->limit(1);

                if ((int)$invoices->count() !== 0) {
                    $invoices = $invoices->getFirstItem();
                    $invoice = $this->invoiceRepository->get($invoices->getId());
                    return $invoice;
                }

                if (!$order->canInvoice()) {
                    return null;
                }

                $invoice = $this->invoiceService->prepareInvoice($order);
                $invoice->setRequestedCaptureCase(Invoice::CAPTURE_ONLINE);
                $invoice->register();
                $invoice->getOrder()->setCustomerNoteNotify(false);
                $invoice->getOrder()->setIsInProcess(true);
                $transactionSave = $this->transactionFactory->create()->addObject($invoice)->addObject($invoice->getOrder());
                $transactionSave->save();

                return $invoice;
            }
        } catch (\Exception $e) {
            throw new \Magento\Framework\Exception\LocalizedException(
                __($e->getMessage())
            );
        }
    }
}

We just put cashondelivery within the above code, but if you need to make auto invoices for other offline payment methods, add them to the $allowPaymentMethod array.

Bingo!! We have completed the code.

Now, open Command line, navigate to the Magento root directory and run the below commands.

saveCopyzoom_out_mapphp bin/magento c:c;

That's it!

Confirm your changes by placing test order with the COD payment method.
