Internal transfers
|
||
==================
|
||
|
||
In Odoo, internal money transfers can be made in a few clicks. You need at least either two bank
|
||
accounts, two cash journals, or one bank account and one cash journal.
|
||
|
||
Configuration
|
||
=============
|
||
|
||
An internal transfer account is automatically created on your database based on your company's
|
||
localization and depending on your country’s legislation. If needed, the default :guilabel:`Internal
|
||
transfer account` can be modified by going to :menuselection:`Accounting app --> Configuration -->
|
||
Settings` and then under the :guilabel:`Default Accounts` section.
|
||
|
||
.. note::
|
||
At least two bank accounts are needed to make internal transfers. Refer to
|
||
:doc:`Bank and cash accounts section <../bank>` to see how to add an additional bank
|
||
account to your database.
|
||
|
||
Register an internal transfer from one bank to another
|
||
======================================================
|
||
|
||
Let's say you have two bank accounts registered on your database and you want to transfer 1,000 USD
|
||
from Bank A to Bank B.
|
||
|
||
Log an internal transfer
|
||
------------------------
|
||
|
||
From the Accounting Dashboard, click on the drop-down selection button (:guilabel:`⋮`) on one of
|
||
your banks. In the :guilabel:`New` column click on :guilabel:`Internal Transfer` and enter the
|
||
information related to the transfer.

|
||
|
||
.. note::
|
||
Fill in the :guilabel:`Memo` field for automatic reconciliation.
|
||
|
||
:guilabel:`Save` and :guilabel:`Confirm` to register your internal transfer. The money is now booked
|
||
in the transfer account and another payment is **automatically** created in the destination journal
|
||
(Bank B).

There are one outstanding payment and one outstanding receipt pending in your two bank account
|
||
journals, because the bank statement confirming the sending and receiving of the money has not
|
||
been booked yet.

Manage and reconcile bank statements
|
||
------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
The next step is to book the bank statements to finalize the transaction by creating,
|
||
:doc:`importing <../bank/transactions>`, or :doc:`synchronizing <../bank/bank_synchronization>` your
|
||
:guilabel:`Transactions lines`. Fill in the :guilabel:`Ending balance` and click on the
|
||
:guilabel:`Reconcile` button.

|

In the next window, choose counterparts for the payment - in this example, the outstanding payment
|
||
account - then click :guilabel:`Validate`.
