Good day,

I am looking for some clarification on Bank Reconciliation; I believe I must have the concept wrong somehow.

I want to understand how I can reconcile the bank statement with the journal entries for a simple interest-free employee loan.

My Journal Entry for employee loan:


Debit to 'Loans Receivable account' 10000

Credit to 'Bank' 10000


I am using Odoo 10 CE with manual bank reconciliation.

When I add a new corresponding bank statement with -10000, the recon does the opposite of what I want:

What concept did I get wrong here? How do I keep my bank account in sync? I have otherwise no problems reconciling invoices and vendor bills.

Thank you!

can you explain when do you want to issue this entry?

Is it for giving the loan or is it for getting back the money?

I found my own answer. I did not even realise that I don't need to first create a journal entry, then do bank recon. I can simply create the journal entry as part of the bank recon itself. Sorry for the trouble here, but at least I hope this answer might help someone.
