How to define an installment plan for an invoice
|
||||
================================================
|
||||
In order to manage installment plans related to an invoice, you should
|
||||
use payment terms in Odoo. They apply on both customer invoices and
|
||||
supplier bills.
|
||||
|
||||
Example, for a specific invoice:
|
||||
|
||||
- Pay 50% within 10 days
|
||||
- Pay the remaining balance within 30 days
|
||||
|
||||
.. note::
|
||||
|
||||
payment terms are not to be confused with a payment in several parts. If,
|
||||
for a specific order, you invoice the customer in two parts, that’s not a
|
||||
payment term but an invoice policy.
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration
|
||||
=============
|
||||
|
||||
Configure your usual installment plans from the application :menuselection:`Accounting -->
|
||||
Configuration > Payment Terms`.
|
||||
|
||||
A payment term may have one line (ex: 21 days) or several lines (10%
|
||||
within 3 days and the balance within 21 days). If you create a payment
|
||||
term with several lines, make sure the latest one is the balance. (avoid
|
||||
doing 50% in 10 days and 50% in 21 days because, with the rounding, it
|
||||
may not compute exactly 100%)
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
.. tip::
|
||||
|
||||
The description of the payment term will appear on the invoice or the sale order.
|
||||
|
||||
Payment terms for customers
|
||||
===========================
|
||||
|
||||
You can set payment terms on:
|
||||
|
||||
- **a customer**: the payment term automatically applies on new sales
|
||||
orders or invoices for this customer. Set payment terms on
|
||||
customers if you grant this payment term for all future orders
|
||||
for this customer.
|
||||
|
||||
- **a quotation**: the payment term will apply on all invoices created
|
||||
from this quotation or sale order, but not on other quotations
|
||||
|
||||
- **an invoice**: the payment term will apply on this invoice only
|
||||
|
||||
If an invoice contains a payment term, the journal entry related to the
|
||||
invoice is different. Without payment term, an invoice of $100 will
|
||||
produce the following journal entry (for the clarity of the example, we
|
||||
did not set any tax on the invoice):
|
||||
|
||||
+----------------------+------------+---------+----------+
|
||||
| Account | Due date | Debit | Credit |
|
||||
+======================+============+=========+==========+
|
||||
| Account Receivable | | 100 | |
|
||||
+----------------------+------------+---------+----------+
|
||||
| Income | | | 100 |
|
||||
+----------------------+------------+---------+----------+
|
||||
|
||||
If you do an invoice the 1st of January with a payment term of 10%
|
||||
within 3 days and the balance within 30 days, you get the following
|
||||
journal entry:
|
||||
|
||||
+----------------------+------------+---------+----------+
|
||||
| Account | Due date | Debit | Credit |
|
||||
+======================+============+=========+==========+
|
||||
| Account Receivable | Jan 03 | 10 | |
|
||||
+----------------------+------------+---------+----------+
|
||||
| Account Receivable | Jan 30 | 90 | |
|
||||
+----------------------+------------+---------+----------+
|
||||
| Income | | | 100 |
|
||||
+----------------------+------------+---------+----------+
|
||||
|
||||
On the customer statement, you will see two lines with different due
|
||||
dates. To get the customer statement, use the menu Sales > Customers
|
||||
Statement.
