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.
|
|
|
|
.. todo:: Add a link to the Reconciliation process in the paragraph above, once the doc will have
|
|
been updated.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
Reconciliation Models are also useful to handle *Cash Discounts*. Please refer to
|
|
:doc:`this documentation <../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 you are reconciling an entry with an *Open Balance*, you can use the buttons available under
|
|
the *Manual Operations* tab to pre-fill all the values automatically, before validating the
|
|
reconciliation. Each button is a different Reconciliation Model.

|
|
.. _reconciliation_models_suggestion:
|
|
|
|
Suggest counterpart values
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
This type of Reconciliation Model suggests immediately counterpart values that only need 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 -->
|
|
Reconciliation --> Reconciliation Models`. Alternatively, you can also open this menu from the
|
|
Accounting Overview, by going to your Bank Journal card, clicking on the three little dots, and then
|
|
on *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, named *Invoices Matching Rule*, is the one responsible for the current matching
|
|
of invoices and bills. Therefore, it is advised to leave it at the top of the list and not to
|
|
delete it.
|
|
|
|
Open the model you want to modify, or click on *Create* to create a new one, then fill out the form.
|
|
|
|
Type
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
See :ref:`above <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 **Activity type**
|
|
field appears when *To check* is ticked. Selecting the value *Reconciliation request* implies
|
|
that, whenever you use this model, a *Request Document* window pops up to request a document from
|
|
a user.
|
|
|
|
Conditions on Bank Statement Line
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Define here all the conditions that are required for a Reconciliation Model to be applied.
|
|
|
|
.. important::
|
|
If a record matches with several Reconciliation Models, the first one in the *sequence* of models
|
|
will be applied. The sequence is simply the order of the models in the *list view*. They can be
|
|
rearranged by dragging-and-dropping the handle next to the 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 *Add a second
|
|
line*.
