Internal transfers
|
||
==================
|
||
|
||
Internal money transfers can be handled in Odoo. At least two bank or cash accounts are needed to
|
||
make internal transfers.

||

:ref:`How to add an additional bank account <accounting/bank/create>`
|
||
|
||
Configuration
|
||
=============
|
||
|
||
An internal transfer account is automatically created on your database based on your company's
|
||
:doc:`localization <../../fiscal_localizations>` and depending on your country’s legislation. To
|
||
modify the default :guilabel:`Internal Transfer` account, go to :menuselection:`Accounting -->
|
||
Configuration --> Settings` and scroll down to the :guilabel:`Default Accounts` section.
|
||
|
||
Register an internal transfer from one bank to another
|
||
======================================================
|
||
|
||
When money is transferred from one bank or cash account to another, that amount appears as two
|
||
transactions on the corresponding journals, whether the transactions are created manually, via
|
||
import, or via :doc:`bank synchronization <bank_synchronization>`. When reconciling the transaction,
|
||
select the :guilabel:`Internal Transfers` :doc:`reconciliation model <reconciliation_models>`
|
||
button. This reconciliation model button writes the transaction off to the :guilabel:`Internal
|
||
Transfer` account.
|
||
|
||
.. tip::
|
||
Remember to reconcile the transaction for both the outgoing transaction on the journal that sends
|
||
the payment and the incoming transaction on the journal that receives the payment.
|
||
|
||
.. example::
|
||
Take, for example, a transfer of $1000 from Bank A to Bank B:
|
||
|
||
- Bank journal (Bank A)
|
||
|
||
.. list-table::
|
||

|
||
|
||
* - **Account**
