Hi,

You can use Odoo’s API to programmatically create and manage accounting entries, including journal entries, invoices, payments, and reconciliations via both internal server-side code and external integrations.

Refer to the following.

Hi,

if you are enter records using API

so use odoo external API XML-RPC

Here is the API documentation

https://www.odoo.com/documentation/18.0/developer/reference/external_api.html

here is example to enter record 

import xmlrpc.client

url = "http://localhost:8080"

db = "<Your database name>"

username = "<enter username>"

password = "<enter password>"

common = xmlrpc . client . ServerProxy ( f " { url } /xmlrpc/2/common" )

uid = common .authentication( db , username , password )

models = xmlrpc . client . ServerProxy ( f " { url } /xmlrpc/2/object" )

partner_id = models .execute_kw( db , uid , password , '<model_name>' , 'create' , [{

'name' : 'Test Partner From XMLRPC' ,

'email' : "abc02@gmail.com"

}])

print ( "Partner Created with ID:" , partner_id )

I hope it is full use.
