Reconciliation models
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
Once the bank statements are correctly imported, it is essential to reconcile the records properly
|
|
and ensure all **journal entries** are balanced and in agreement. To ease and speed up the
|
|
reconciliation process, you can configure **reconciliation models**, which are particularly useful
|
|
with **recurrent entries** such as bank fees.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
Reconciliation models are also useful when handling *Cash Discounts*. Please refer to
|
|
:doc:`the cash discounts <../customer_invoices/cash_discounts>` for more
|
|
information.

Types of reconciliation models
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
There are three types of reconciliation models:
|
|
|
|
#. :ref:`Write-off button <reconciliation_models_button>`
|
|
#. :ref:`Suggestion of counterpart values <reconciliation_models_suggestion>`
|
|
#. :ref:`Match existing invoices/bills <reconciliation_models_match>`
|
|
|
|
.. _reconciliation_models_button:
|
|
|
|
Manually create a write-off on clicked button
|
|
---------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
When reconciling an entry with an *open balance*, you can use the buttons available under the
|
|
:guilabel:`Manual Operations` tab to pre-fill all the values automatically before validating the
|
|
reconciliation. Each button corresponds to a reconciliation model.

|
|
|
|
.. _reconciliation_models_suggestion:
|
|
|
|
Suggest counterpart values
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
This type of reconciliation model immediately suggests counterpart values when selecting an entry,
|
|
which then only needs to be validated. This automation is based on a set of rules defined in the
|
|
reconciliation model.

|
|
|
|
.. _reconciliation_models_match:
|
|
|
|
Match existing invoices/bills
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
This type of reconciliation model automatically selects the right customer invoice or vendor bill
|
|
that matches the payment. All that is left to do is to validate the entry. This automation is based
|
|
on a set of rules defined in the reconciliation model.

|
Configuration
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
To manage or create new **reconciliation models**, go to :menuselection:`Accounting app -->
|
|
Configuration --> Banks: Reconciliation Models`. Alternatively, you can also open this menu from
|
|
:menuselection:`Accounting app --> Bank --> Drop-down menu (⋮) --> Reconciliation Models`.
|
|
|
|
.. image:: reconciliation_models/reconciliation_models_overview.png
|
|
:align: center
|
|
:alt: Open the reconciliation model menu from the overview dashboard in Odoo Accounting.
|
|
|
|
.. important::
|
|
The first entry, :guilabel:`Invoices Matching Rule`, is responsible for the current matching of
|
|
invoices and bills. Therefore, it is advised to leave it at the top of the list and not delete
|
|
it.
|
|
|
|
Open the model you want to modify or click on :guilabel:`Create` to create a new one, and fill out
|
|
the form.
|
|
|
|
Type
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
See :ref:`types of reconciliation models <reconciliation_models_types>` for an explanation about the
|
|
different types of reconciliation models.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
If the *Documents* application is installed on your database, an additional
|
|
:guilabel:`Activity type` field appears when :guilabel:`To Check` is ticked. Selecting the value
|
|
:guilabel:`Reconciliation request` implies that whenever you use this model, a
|
|
:guilabel:`Request Document` window pops up to request a document from the user.
|
|
|
|
Conditions on bank statement line
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Define here all the conditions that should be fulfilled for the reconciliation model to be applied.
|
|
Depending on the :guilabel:`Type` of model you choose, different options are available.
|
|
|
|
.. important::
|
|
If a record matches with several reconciliation models, the first one in the list is applied.
|
|
Models can be rearranged by dragging and dropping the handle next to their name.

Counterpart values
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
This section comprises the values that are applied by the reconciliation model. If the value to
|
|
reconcile needs to be written-off in two separate accounts, click on :guilabel:`Add a second line` a
|
|
second time.
