Hello, I have Odoo 8.
I have a partner who is at same time customer and supplier. How can I balance the amount of the invoices? For example:
-Sale invoice of $100.
-Purchase invoice of $50.
Then, the partner due to me $50 and the PO should be in "paid" state automatically. How can I do this, or what is the best way to manage this type of cases? Thanks!
You can define one unique account for the recording of both sales and purchase invoice!
My additional 2 cents! :)
For a legal standpoint, make sure you are allowed to net these two transactions. some countries do not allow this.
For an internal control standpoint, it is not recommended to do this; imagine that one of the invoices becomes disputed by one of the parties! An automatic netting option will have paid the disputed invoice, may be without you agreement!
is there a way to manually balance those invoices against each other. That would avoid the problems in a dispute situation you mention
In the Client form, in Account tab, I can define only "receivable" accounts for the default account receivable and "turn out" accounts for the default account turn out. So I can't define the same account in both places.

--I don't understand. I create one customer and one supplier, which represents the same partner. But in the supplier I need to set a payable account, and in the customer I need to set a receivable account. I can't set the same account. Can you give me an example? Thanks you a lot!
