Hi all,


Small question: in invoicing (account_move) we see some fields like:

- amount_untaxed & amount_untaxed.signed

- amount_tax & amount_tax_signed


What's the difference or what is it for?



thx in advance!

Hi Roeland Vandecan,

Based on my R&D

Found this field in (account.move) model

use in compute total amount.

  1. amount_untaxed:
    • Represents the untaxed amount without considering whether it's a debit or credit.
    • This field typically holds the absolute value of the untaxed amount, regardless of whether it's positive (debit) or negative (credit).
  2. amount_untaxed_signed:
    • Represents the untaxed amount with its sign preserved.
    • If the untaxed amount is positive (debit), it's stored as a positive value. If it's negative (credit), it's stored as a negative value.
  3. amount_tax:
    • Represents the tax amount without considering whether it's a debit or credit.
    • Similar to amount_untaxed, this field typically holds the absolute value of the tax amount, regardless of its direction.
  4. amount_tax_signed:
    • Represents the tax amount with its sign preserved.
    • If the tax amount is positive (debit), it's stored as a positive value. If it's negative (credit), it's stored as a negative value.

The purpose of maintaining both signed and unsigned versions of these fields is to provide flexibility for various accounting operations and reporting requirements. 

  • Unsigned amounts (amount_untaxed and amount_tax) are useful for calculating totals, performing arithmetic operations, and ensuring consistency in financial calculations.
  • Signed amounts (amount_untaxed_signed and amount_tax_signed) are valuable for reporting and analysis purposes, as they reflect the nature of the transaction (debit or credit) and help in preparing accurate financial statements.


Thanks
