For Odoo accountants and functional configurators out there: Need help if this is either a process issue or a configuration issue on how to balance accounts for inventory valuation where Landed Costs are concerned.
So when purchasing inventory, inventory value gets assigned to the journal account for inventory assets called "Inventory Valuation" (debit) and corresponding credit for "Stock Interim (Received)" account.
After the vendor bill for the inventory purchase is made, the "Stock Interim (Received)" is reversed/debited accordingly (balanced mainly by "Accounts Payable" double entry as expected).
The concern I have comes in when I introduce a landed cost (e.g., "Delivery Fees") in the vendor bill. Once bill is confirmed, the landed cost is entered as "Expense" (debit) in the journal entry. Okay.
To add the landed cost in the valuation, I click on the Landed Cost button and tag the WH receipt to rightfully tag the additional valuation cost on the inventory items purchased. This adds a journal entry with debit for "Inventory Valuation" (okay) and credit for "Stock Interim (Received)" (also okay).
But unlike when vendor bill is validated for payment, the increase in credit for "Stock Interim (Received)" doesn't seem to be reversed anywhere else in the process. So every time landed costs are added for inventory purchases, inventory valuation will accumulate credit value for "Stock Interim (Received)."
Am I missing a process step for inventory valuation? Nothing is mentioned in the documentation: https://www.odoo.com/documentation/saas-18.4/applications/inventory_and_mrp/inventory/product_management/inventory_valuation/landed_costs.html
