What influences the productivity and performance of Odoo's accounting

This Week's Top Stories About Odoo's Accounting Features

Being into the accounting industry is a lot to handle. Are you one of those? Accountants are incredible when they sort out business needs and queries and make it easy to manage those hard accounting norms. The idea of accounting is to enhance system efficiency with features that may be absent in regular working. While custom accounting software enables a smooth transition, which would appear to work perfectly for a particular case (since it is designed to support and address the specific needs of the organization involved), the use of a custom accounting software comes with numerous disadvantages.

To manage the working, we have Odoo V13 accounting software which is not just a  modern and intuitive software but it is a great way to manage daily business. In this blog, we are going to discuss some of the important and influencing pointers to note for its performance and productivity.

The financial documents of the company (e.g. an invoice, a bank statement, a payslip, a capital increase contract) is recorded as a journal entry, impacting several accounts.

Journal entry to be balanced, the sum of all its debits must be equal to the sum of all its credits.

Reconciliation

The purpose is to link payments to their related invoices in order to mark invoices that are paid and clear the customer statement. This is done by doing a reconciliation on the Accounts Receivable account.

An invoice is marked as paid when its Accounts Receivable journal items are reconciled with the related payment journal items.

Reconciliation is performed automatically by the system when:

  • Payment is registered directly on the invoice.

  • The payments and the invoices links are detected at the bank matching process.

Bank Reconciliation

Bank reconciliation is the matching of bank statement entries with transactions recorded internally.

Previously recorded payment matching  payment is registered when a check is received from a customer, then matched when checking the bank statement

New payment The payment’s journal entry is created and reconciled with the related invoice when processing the bank statement.

Another transaction recorded bank transfer, direct charge, etc.

Odoo should automatically reconcile most transactions, only a few of them should need manual review. When the bank reconciliation process is finished, the bank balance in Odoo should match the bank statement’s balance.
