Accounting and Invoicing

Odoo Invoicing is a standalone app designed to create invoices, send them to customers, and manage payments. It also handles flows involving vendor bills. On the other hand, the Accounting app is a comprehensive accounting solution that allows the same actions and includes additional features such as standard financial reports, bank reconciliation, budgets, asset management, and more.

Double-entry bookkeeping

Odoo automatically creates all the underlying journal entries for all accounting transactions (e.g., customer invoices, vendor bills, point-of-sales orders, expenses, inventory valuations, etc.).

Odoo uses the double-entry bookkeeping system, whereby every entry needs a corresponding and opposite counterpart in a different account, with one account debited and the other credited. It ensures that all transactions are recorded accurately and consistently and that the accounts always balance.

Accrual and cash basis

Both accrual and cash basis accounting are supported in Odoo. This allows reporting income and expense either when the transaction occurs (accrual basis) or when the payment is made or received (cash basis).

Cash basis

Đa công ty

Multiple companies can be managed within the same database. Each company has its own chart of accounts, but accounts can be shared, which is useful when viewing consolidation reports. Users can view records and reports from multiple companies simultaneously but can only work on a single company's accounting at a time.

Môi trường đa tiền tệ

Odoo có một môi trường đa tiền tệ với tỷ giá hối đoái tự động để dễ dàng thực hiện giao dịch quốc tế. Mỗi giao dịch được ghi nhận bằng đồng tiền mặc định của công ty; đối với các giao dịch được thực hiện bằng đồng tiền khác, Odoo lưu trữ cả giá trị bằng đồng tiền của công ty và giá trị của giao dịch bằng đồng tiền của giao dịch đó. Odoo tạo ra các khoản lãi và lỗ tỷ giá sau khi đối chiếu các hạng mục bút toán.

Chi nhánh

Parent companies and their branches can be managed within a single database, operating under shared accounting and reporting rules, including the following:

  • The parent company’s chart of accounts, main currency, and taxes apply to all branches.

  • Branches can manage their own dedicated journals and related records.

  • The parent company manages a common fiscal period, so its lock and closing dates apply across all branches. However, branches may set earlier lock dates if needed.

  • The parent company can access all reports, invoices, bills, etc., from its branches, while each branch can only view its own data.

Ghi chú

The Fiscal localization package is set on the parent company.

Cảnh báo

Adding a branch to a company enables multi-company functions.

Báo cáo

The parent company consolidates accounting operations from all branches, providing a centralized view of financial reports, such as profit and loss or balance sheets.

Mã số thuế

Each company and branch must be configured with its own legal information, including a VAT number when applicable. Depending on the structure, branches may share the parent company's VAT number or have their own, resulting in a common or separate VAT return.

This flexible setup allows users to generate individual reports and tax returns for each entity if needed.

Chuẩn mực quốc tế

Odoo Accounting supports over 100 countries and provides standardized features and mechanisms applicable across all regions. Country-specific modules are included to comply with local accounting regulations. Fiscal localizations handle regional requirements, such as charts of accounts, taxes, or any other legal obligations.

Accounts receivable and payable

By default, one account is designated for accounts receivable entries and another for accounts payable entries. As transactions are linked to contacts, it is possible to run a report per customer, vendor, or supplier.

The Partner Ledger report displays the balance of customers and suppliers. To access it, go to Accounting ‣ Reporting ‣ Partner Ledger.

Tờ khai thuế

In the Tax return, Odoo computes all accounting transactions for the specific tax period and uses these totals to calculate the tax obligation.

Ghi chú

Depending on the country's localization, an XML version of the tax report can be generated to be uploaded to the VAT platform of the relevant taxation authority.

The bank synchronization system directly connects with banking institutions to automatically import all transactions into the database. It gives an overview of the cash flow without logging into an online banking system or waiting for paper bank statements.

Định giá tồn kho

Both periodic (manual) and perpetual (automated) inventory valuations are supported in Odoo. The available methods are standard price, average price, LIFO and FIFO (First-In, First-Out).

Retained earnings are the portion of income retained by a business. Odoo calculates current year earnings in real-time, so no year-end journal or rollover is required. The profit and loss balance is automatically reported on the balance sheet report.

The Accounting Firms mode can be activated by going to Accounting ‣ Configuration ‣ Settings. When enabled:

  • The document's sequence becomes editable on all documents;

  • The Total (tax incl.) field appears to speed up and control the encoding by automating line creation with the right account and tax;

  • Invoice Date and Bill Date are pre-filled when encoding a transaction.

  • A Quick encoding option is available for customer invoices and vendor bills.

Accountant access rights

To grant access to the company's accountant, add the accountant as a new user and configure the appropriate access rights in the Accounting section to enable access to the company's financial data:

  • Accounting: Select Accountant.

  • Bank: Allow bank account validation.

Ghi chú

Adding an accountant as a new user in Odoo Online is free if the accountant has an Odoo account registered with the same email address as the one listed for the company user. However, Odoo.sh and Odoo On-premise may involve extra charges for each additional user. For more pricing information, see Odoo's pricing.

For a multi-company environment, set the appropriate access.
