Issue invoices and register payments
====================================
You can issue invoices for Amazon orders in Odoo. Click **Create Invoice** in the sales order to do
so. You can also do it in batch from the list view of orders. Then, confirm and send the invoices to
your customers.
Issue invoices
--------------
Sending invoices to Amazon customers directly from Odoo is not feasible due to Amazon's policy of
not sharing customer email addresses. Instead, it is possible to manually upload the invoices
generated on Odoo to the Amazon backend.
In addition, for your B2B clients, it is currently required to manually retrieve VAT numbers from
the Amazon backend before creating the invoice in Odoo.
.. note::
For :doc:`TaxCloud <../../../finance/accounting/taxes/taxcloud>` users: invoices created from
Amazon sales orders are **not** synchronized with TaxCloud, since Amazon already includes them in
its own tax report to TaxCloud.
Register payments
-----------------
As customers pay Amazon as an intermediary, creating a dedicated *Bank* journal (for example, named
`Amazon payments`) with a dedicated *Bank and Cash* intermediary account is recommended.
In addition, as Amazon makes a single monthly payment, selecting all the invoices linked to a single
payment is necessary when registering payments. Use the dedicated `Amazon payments`
:guilabel:`Journal` and select :guilabel:`Batch Deposit` as the :guilabel:`Payment Method`. Then,
select all the payments generated and click :menuselection:`Actions --> Create batch payment -->
Validate`.
.. tip::
To display only Amazon-related orders on the list view, you can filter orders based on the sales
team.
As the customer has paid Amazon as an intermediary, you should register invoice payments in a
payment journal dedicated to Amazon (e.g. Amazon Payments, with a dedicated intermediary account).
You can do the same with the vendor bill received from Amazon and dedicated to commissions. When you
receive the balance on your bank account at the end of the month and record your bank statements in
Odoo, you simply credit the Amazon intermediary account by the amount received.
The same can be done with vendor bills from Amazon dedicated to commissions. When the balance is
received in the bank account at the end of the month and the banks statements are recorded,
credit the Amazon intermediary account by the amount received.
