-accounts of your country.
-

-
-Defining Fiscal Positions
--------------------------
-
-The main fiscal positions are automatically created according to the
-chart of accounts of your country. But you may have to create fiscal
-positions manually for specific use cases.
-
-To define fiscal positions, from the **Accounting** application, go to
-:menuselection:`Configuration --> Fiscal Positions`.
-
-Fiscal position is just a set of rules that maps default taxes (as defined on
-product form) into other taxes. In the screenshot below, european

+
+Odoo will use this specific fiscal position for any order/invoice recorded for the customer.
+
+.. note:: 
+    If you set the fiscal position in the sales order or invoice manually, it will only
+    apply to this document and not to future orders/invoices of the same customer.
+
+Adapt taxes to your customer address (destination-based)
+========================================================
+
+Depending on your localization, sales taxes may be origin-based or destination-based.
+Most states or countries require you to collect taxes at the rate of the destination
+(i.e. your buyer’s address) while some others require to collect them at the rate effective
+at the point of origin (i.e. your office or warehouse).
+
+If you are under the destination-based rule, create one fiscal position per tax-mapping to apply.
+
+* Check the box *Detect Automatically*.
+* Select a country group, country, state or city to trigger the tax-mapping.
 
 .. image:: media/application04.png
    :align: center
 
+This way if no fiscal position is set on the customer, Odoo will choose the fiscal position matching the
+shipping address on creating an order.
+
+.. note::
+    For eCommerce orders, the tax of the visitor's cart will automatically
+    update and apply the new tax after the visitor has logged in or filled
+    in his shipping address.
+
+In the US
+---------
+If you are based in the US, right tax rates can be computed automatically thanks to TaxCloud.
+This is effort-less.
+
+* Create an account on TaxCloud.com.
+* Install *Account TaxCloud* addon in :menuselection:`Apps`.
+* Enter your credentials in :menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration --> Settings`.
+* Hit *Sync TaxCloud Catgories (TIC)*.
+* Select a default TIC to compute taxes in :menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration --> Settings`.
+* If some products go under a different TIC, select it from the product detail form (in *Invoicing* tab).

-position for this customer on orders (example: construction companies).
-In such a case, it's recommended to set the fiscal position on the
-customer form. Odoo will automatically reuse this value for orders and
-invoices, without trying to auto-detect the fiscal position.

-If you set the fiscal position at the sale order or invoice level, it
-will only apply to this document only and not to future orders/invoices

-For eCommerce orders, the tax of the visitor's cart will automatically

+=============================
+How to set up payment methods
+=============================
+
+To collect payments, you can either request your customers to process it
+manually (e.g. wire transfer) or redirect them to payment acquirers. The payment
+process described hereunder is common to both eCommerce and online quotations.
+
+Payment methods
+===============
+
+Wire transfer
+-------------
+
+Wire Transfer is the default payment method available. The aim is providing your
+customers with your bank details so that they can pay via their bank. This is very
+easy to start with but slow and inefficient process-wise. Opt for online acquirers
+as soon as you can!
+
+.. tip::
+    For B2B users: you can create new manually-processed payment methods (check,
+    purchase order, etc.) by renaming 'Wire Transfer' or duplicating it.
+
+Online payment acquirers
+------------------------
+
+Redirect your customers to payment acquirer platforms to collect money effortless.
+Odoo supports more and more platforms over time: Paypal, Ingenico, Authorize.net,
+etc. Once the payment accepted, orders are confirmed in Odoo so that the delivery
+& invoicing processes are triggered automatically.
+
+Custom (advanced)
+-----------------
+
+Can be used to request payments to any payment acquirer not listed in Odoo. 
+
+Edit a payment method
+=======================
+
+To make payment methods intuitive for your customers feel free to customize them by editing:
+
+* the name,
+
+* the picture,
+
+* the notification messages (thank you & next step, error, cancellation).
+
+Go to :menuselection:`Website Admin --> Configuration --> Payment Acquirers` to do so.
+
+Generic setup
+=============
+
+1. Review the elements here above.
+
+2. Enter your credentials (online acquirers only).
+
+3. Choose your order confirmation preference (see below).
+
+4. Publish the payment method.
+
+5. Test the payment flow in *Test* mode (default mode).
+
+6. Switch to *Production* mode.
+
+7. Se your default payment acquirer in :menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration --> Settings`.
+   It will be auto-selected for your customers when they enter the payment screen.
+
+.. note::
+    Rely on the documentation related to your payment acquirer to go through step 2, 5 and 6. Some
+    acquirers provides you with specific credentials for test and production modes (Paypal). Others
+    let you switch mode in their setup interface (Authorize.net).
+
+.. tip::
+    With Ingenico and Authorize.net, you can let your customers save and reuse a payment card to
+    accelerate the process on next checkouts. See *Store Card Data* in Configuration tab.
+
+Payment flow
+============
+
+1. When choosing the payment method, the customer is taken to the payment acquirer interface to
+   process the payment.
+
+2. Once done he is taken back to Odoo's confirmation page. The transaction status shows up:
+
+* *Pending*: the order will be confirmed as soon as you authorize the transaction in the acquirer interface.
+
+* *Confirmed*: the payment has been authorized automatically.
+
+3. A confirmation email is sent to the customer with a copy of the order in pdf. It shows the payment status.
+
+4. Launch the delivery and invoicing from:
+
+* eCommerce: :menuselection:`Website Admin --> Orders --> (Unpaid) Orders`,
+
+* online quotations: :menuselection:`Sales --> Sales --> Quotations/Sales Orders`.
+
+For internal tracking purposes, a link to the transaction status is provided in the sales order.
+
+.. note::
+    If the customer cancels the payment while on the payment acquirer form, it is taken back to
+    the store page (or online quotation) in order to reprocess the order. The payment is
+    marked as *Cancelled* in Odoo.
+
+.. tip::
+    You can edit the confirmation email template from
+    :menuselection:`Website Admin --> Configuration --> Settings`.
+
+Order confirmation preferences
+==============================
+
+There are 4 different behaviors available for any payment acquirer.
+
+No automatic confirmation
+-------------------------
+
+This is the default mode for *Wire Transfer*. It means Odoo does not confirm orders but keep
+them in an intermediary stage (*Quotation Sent* = *Unpaid Order*). Once you get the payment,
+you are expected to confirm the order manually to pursue the process (delivery, invoicing).
+
+Authorize the amount and confirm the SO on acquirer confirmation (capture manually)
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Odoo confirms the order as soon as the payment success notification comes in. To get the
+money however, you need to capture it from your payment transaction. In lots of countries
+you are indeed requested to deliver your goods before capturing the amount.
+
+Authorize & capture the amount and confirm the SO on acquirer confirmation
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+This is the default mode for payment acquirers. The amount is captured automatically.
+
+.. tip::
+    For B2B: if you use a manual payment method like *Wire Transfer* and don't expect any
+    upfront payment to launch the delivery, switch to this mode as well.
+
+Authorize & capture the amount, confirm the SO and auto-validate the invoice on acquirer confirmation
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+If you invoice upfront and not at the delivery, switch to this last mode to automate everything.
+You are requested to select a Payment Journal to record such payments
+(see :doc:`../../accounting/receivables/customer_payments/credit_cards`).
+
+Custom payment acquirers (advanced)
+===================================
+
+Odoo can submit payment requests and redirect to any payment acquirer. In such a case, you need
+to confirm the sale manually in Odoo once you get paid because Odoo cannot read any payment
+status sent by the acquirer.
+
+To configure this:
+
+* switch to developer mode,
+
+* edit the *Custom* payment method,
+
+* set up the payment form (S2S Form Template) as instructed by your payment acquirer. You can
+  start from *default_acquirer_button* that you can duplicate. 
+
+Recurring payments & Installment plans
+======================================
+
+The Ingenico integration allows you to process and manage recurring payments from Odoo
+Subscriptions app out-of-the-box (more information coming soon).
+
+With some customization, Odoo can also trigger installment plans if this is permitted by
+your payment acquirer’s API:
+
+e.g. Paypal Installment Plans (see https://developer.paypal.com/docs/classic/paypal-payments-standard/integration-guide/installment_buttons).
+
+Such a service is made on-demand by our technical experts based on your own requirements.

+===================================
+How to collect payments with Paypal
+===================================
+
+Paypal is the easiest payment method to configure. It is also the only one without any subscription
+free.
+
+Setup your Paypal account
+=========================
+
+1. Create a business account at Paypal.com (see:
+https://www.paypal.com/in/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=xpt/Marketing/general/how-to-set-up-a-paypal-account-outside)
+or upgrade your account to Business account (merchant) if you have a basic account.
+
+2. Log in to your account at Paypal.com and go to
+:menuselection:`My Account --> Profile --> My Selling Tools`. There click *PayPal button language
+encoding* under *More Selling Tools* section. Then, click *More Options* and replace the two default
+encoding formats by *UTF-8*.
+
+3. Open Paypal setup form in Odoo and enter your *Email ID*.
+
+4. The Paypal Merchant ID is not mandatory (extra verification level). It is provided in
+Paypal under :menuselection:`My Account --> Overview`.
+
+5. Configure the IPN feedback (Paypal contacting your Odoo instance without needing the
+redirection). The setting can be found in
+:menuselection:`Profile --> My Selling Tools --> Instant payment notification`.
+Activate it and set it to <odoo_instance_url>/payment/paypal/ipn.
+
+6. To test the workflow, you can create sandbox accounts by logging in at
+https://developer.paypal.com/webapps/developer/applications/myapps with the same Paypal credentials.
+Two default sandbox accounts are automatically generated when you register to Paypal:
+one is a buyer, the  other is a shopper.
+
+7. Log in with your buyer sandbox account to https://www.sandbox.paypal.com (same password than real
+account) and apply the same format change.
+
+.. tip::
+    To automatically redirect your customers when the payment is completed, go to your Website
+    Preferences and turn *Auto Return* on. Set *Return URL* to <odoo_instance_url>/shop/confirmation.
+    Verify that your *Notify URL* uses the correct protocol (HTTP/HTTPS).
+	
+.. tip::
+    If you want your customers to pay without creating a Paypal account, *Paypal Account
+    Optional* needs to be turned on.
+
+Transaction fees
+================
+
+You can charge an extra to the customer to cover the transaction fees Paypal charges you.
+Once redirected to Paypal, your customer sees an extra applied to the order amount. 
+
+To activate this, go to the *Configuration* tab and check *Add Extra Fees*. Default
+fees are the ones charged by Paypal.

+==============================================================
+How to adapt your prices to your customers and apply discounts
+==============================================================
+
+Have the pricing strategy tailored to your business, with specific prices
+and discounts per quantity, period, currency or customer segment. Odoo has an
+integrated tool to set and compute sales prices, the so-called Pricelists.
+
+Choose your pricing strategy in click on :menuselection:`Sales --> Settings`.
+
+.. image:: ./media/pricing_options.png
+   :align: center
+
+Several prices per product 
+==========================
+
+To apply several prices per product, select *Different prices per customer
+segment* in :menuselection:`Sales --> Settings`. Then open the *Sales* tab
+in the product detail form. You can settle following strategies.
+
+Prices per customer segment 
+---------------------------
+
+Create pricelists for your customer segments: e.g. registered, premium, etc.
+
+.. image:: ./media/pricing_customer.png
+   :align: center
+
+The default pricelist applied to any new customer is *Public Pricelist*. To
+segment your customers, open the customer detail form and change the *Sale
+Pricelist* in the *Sales & Purchases* tab.
+
+.. image:: ./media/customer_pricelist.png
+   :align: center
+
+Temporary prices
+----------------
+
+Apply deals for bank holidays, etc. Enter start and end dates dates.
+
+.. image:: ./media/pricing_period.png
+   :align: center
+
+.. tip::
+    Make sure you have default prices set in the pricelist outside of the
+    deals period. Otherwise you might have issues once the period over.
+
+Prices per minimum quantity
+---------------------------
+
+.. image:: ./media/pricing_quantity.png
+   :align: center
+
+.. note::
+    The prices order does not matter. The system is smart and applies
+    first prices that match the order date and/or the minimal quantities.
+
+Discounts, margins, roundings
+=============================
+
+The third option allows to apply discounts % or amounts, margins and
+rounding based on formulas. Once installed go to
+:menuselection:`Sales --> Configuration --> Pricelists
+(or :menuselection:`Website Admin --> Catalog --> Pricelists` if you
+use e-Commerce).
+
+.. image:: ./media/pricing_formula.png
+   :align: center
+
+Each pricelist item can be associated to either all products, to a product internal category (set of products) or to a specific product. Like in second option, you can set dates and minimum quantities.
+
+.. image:: ./media/pricelist_apply.png
+   :align: center
+
+.. note::
+
+* Once again the system is smart. If a rule is set for a particular item and another one for its category, Odoo will take the rule of the item. 
+
+* Make sure at least one pricelist item covers all your products.
+There are 3 modes of computation: fix price, discount & formula.
+
+.. image:: ./media/price_computation.png
+   :align: center
+
+Here are different price settings made possible thanks to formulas.
+
+Discounts with roundings
+------------------------
+
+e.g. 20% discounts with prices rounded up to 9.99.
+
+.. image:: ./media/formula_discount.png
+   :align: center
+
+Costs with markups (retail)
+---------------------------
+
+e.g. sale price = 2*cost (100% markup) with $5 of minimal margin.
+
+.. image:: ./media/formula_cost.png
+   :align: center
+
+Prices per country
+==================
+Pricelists can be set by countries group.
+Any new customer recorded in Odoo gets a default pricelist, i.e. the first one in the list matching the country. In case no country is set for the customer, Odoo takes the first pricelist without any country group.
+
+The default pricelist can be replaced when creating a sales order.
+
+.. tip:: You can change the pricelists sequence by drag & drop in list view. 
+
+Compute and show discount % to customers
+=============================
+
+In case of discount, you can show the public price and the computed discount % on printed sales orders and in your eCommerce catalog. To do so:
+
+* Check *Allow discounts on sales order lines* in :menuselection:`Sales --> Configuration --> Settings --> Quotations & Sales --> Discounts`.
+* Apply the option in the pricelist setup form.
