Create the Report Action (XML file):

6. Enterprise
● In this XML file, we define a report action with a name, a
model it's associated with (in this case,
"product.template"), the report type as "qweb-pdf," and
the report name.
● The report_name field should point to the QWeb
template that we'll create in the next step.
● The report action defined earlier will result in the addition
of a new report option under the "Print" menu within the
related model, which in this case is "product.template."
This custom report will be seamlessly integrated into the
"Print" menu, making it easily accessible for users.

Create the QWeb Template (XML file):

9. Enterprise
● In the QWeb template XML file, we define a template
with the same name referenced in the report action's
report_name field.
● Inside the template, we use t-foreach to loop through the
product records (docs) and generate content for each
product.
● You can include HTML and QWeb expressions to format
and display the information as required.
