Odoo Accounting Module Bank Reconciliation

Matching your bank statement to your account records is difficult. There is a lot of possibility for error in this procedure, as well as the loss of important data or records on transactions. Even a minor data error might generate major misunderstandings and huddles in a business's seamless workflow. Every step of the procedure is complex and prone to error. This is why you'll need the help of a sophisticated system like Odoo to manage the entire process for you. Odoo makes it simple to link invoices or other payment documents to your bank statement. You can either indicate the payment on the invoice directly or reconcile open invoices with bank statements in the Odoo Accounting module's bank reconciliation procedure.

Making use of the functionality in Odoo Accounting Module

The feature is simple to use, and because most of the processes in Odoo are automated, you can simply manage complex company data. This is why the Odoo Accounting module makes it simple to compare and contrast complex business data. To use this service, you must link your Odoo account to your bank account. The majority of the Accounting module's main features and functionalities are dependent on your bank account, so it's critical that you link your bank account to the Odoo system. This gives you direct access to your bank reconciliation through Odoo and gives you a bird' eye view of the money you've sent for business needs.

As previously stated, using the function is simple after the initial Bank setup and configurations. Odoo's advanced and automated nature will quickly do the job for you. As a result, recording payments and other similar activities are simple using Odoo. Using an example to demonstrate the method will show you how simple it is. Assume you get a proof of invoice in the amount of 2,100 euros from Smith and Company. We begin our issued invoice of 2,100 euros for Smith and Company because you require the consumer to pay as soon as possible.

You may simply mark the invoice as paid after receiving the customer payment confirmation, and the specifics of the invoice can be found in the screenshot below.

To inform your Odoo system that the customer has paid the invoice, click Registerpayment as shown in the screenshot above. The following step is to input the amount and payment information as shown in the screenshot below.

The Info button can be found here. To see the information, click it, as seen in the screenshot above. Odoo performs the reconciliation automatically after the payment has been confirmed.

Assume you have many invoices open for different clients and that you begin with the given invoice for Smith and Company, which is 3000 euros. Invoices under the customers tab in your Odoo Accounting module will display you a list of your client invoices, as demonstrated in the screenshot above.
By pressing the Create or Import buttons in the screenshot above, you can create bank reconciliation or statement files or import them into your Oodoo system. This feature is dependent on whether or not you have synchronized your bank with the Odoo Accounting module, and if you haven't, you won't be able to use it.

Odoo Accounting module will take you to a configuration place where you may build the bank statements or enter them into Odoo if you click on create. If you wish to upload the bank statement to the system and Odoo, click the Import option. After completing the process, as seen in the screenshot below, you can find the invoice details on transactions for the example mentioned previously.

Go to your Odoo Accounting module dashboard and look under Bank for the two items with a reconcile button, as seen in the screenshot below. Odoo will double-check that all of the data is correct and up-to-date. Reconciliations will be performed automatically if the system considers the details to be error-free. The procedure is straightforward and simple to comprehend.

With the advanced support of the Odoo system, you can easily manage complex business accounts in a simple and effective manner.
