Prior to this commit, the Odoo documentation was mainly split between
two repositories: odoo/odoo/doc and odoo/documentation-user. Some bits
of documentation were also hosted elsewhere (e.g., wiki, upgrade, ...).
This was causing several problems among which:
- The theme, config, Makefile, and similar technical resources had to
be duplicated. This resulted in inconsistent layout, features, and
build environments from one documentation to another.
- Some pages did not fit either documentation as they were relevant
for both users and developers. Some were relevant to neither of the
two (e.g., DB management).
- Cross-doc references had to be absolute links and they broke often.
- Merging large image files in the developer documentation would bloat
the odoo/odoo repository. Some contributions had to be lightened to
avoid merging too many images (e.g., Odoo development tutorials).
- Long-time contributors to the user documentation were chilly about
going through the merging process of the developer documentation
because of the runbot, mergebot, `odoo-dev` repository, etc.
- Some contributors would look for the developer documentation in the
`odoo/documentation-user` repository.
- Community issues about the user documentation were submitted on the
`odoo/odoo` repository and vice-versa.
Merging all documentations in one repository will allow us to have one
place, one theme, one work process, and one set of tools (build
environment, ...) for all of the Odoo docs.
As this is a good opportunity to revamp the layout of the documentation,
a brand new theme replaces the old one. It features a new way to
navigate the documentation, centered on the idea of always letting the
reader know what is the context (enclosing section, child pages, page
structure ...) of the page they are reading. The previous theme would
quickly confuse readers as they navigated the documentation and followed
cross-application links.
The chance is also taken to get rid of all the technical dangling parts,
performance issues, and left-overs. Except for some page-specific JS
scripts, the Odoo theme Sphinx extension is re-written from scratch
based on the latest Sphinx release to benefit from the improvements and
ease future contributions.

How to do a bank wire transfer from one bank to another?
|
|
========================================================
|
|
|
|
A company might have several bank accounts or cash registers. Within
|
|
odoo it is possible to handle internal transfers of money with only a
|
|
couple of clicks.
|
|
|
|
We will take the following example to illustrate. My company has two
|
|
bank accounts and I want to transfer 50.000 euros from one of our bank
|
|
accounts to the another one.
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
Check your Chart of Accounts and default transfer account
|
|
---------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
To handle internal transfers you need a transfer account in your charts
|
|
of account. Odoo will generate an account automatically based on the
|
|
country of your chart of account. To configure your chart of accounts and
|
|
check the default transfer account go into the accounting module settings,
|
|
select :menuselection:`Configuration --> Settings`.
|
|
|
|
Your chart of accounts will be pre-installed depending on the country
|
|
specified during your registration, it cannot be changed.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
The default transfer account will automatically be generated as well
|
|
depending on your country's legislation. If necessary it can be modified
|
|
from the same page.
|
|

|
Create a second bank account / Journal
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Before we can register an internal transfer we need to add a new bank to
|
|
our accounting dashboard. To do so enter the accounting module, click on
|
|
:menuselection:`Configuration --> Bank Accounts`. Create a new bank account. You should
|
|
fill in the **Account Number**. You can also create and edit your bank to
|
|
specify your bank's details.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
By saving the changes you now have 2 bank accounts.

Register an internal transfer from one bank to another.
|
|
=======================================================
|
|
|
|
We will now transfer 50.000 euros from our **Bank** to our **Bank BE57 0633
|
|
9533 1498** account.
|
|
|
|
Log an internal transfer
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
The first step is to register the internal payment. To do so go into
|
|
your accounting dashboard, click on the **more** button of one of your banks
|
|
and select :menuselection:`New --> Internal transfer`.
|
|
|
|
.. image:: media/interbank01.png
|
|
:align: center
|
|
|
|
Create a new payment. The payment type will automatically be set to
|
|
internal transfer. Select the **Bank** you want to transfer to, specify the
|
|
**Amount** and add a **Memo** if you wish.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
The memo is important if you wish to automatically reconcile (`see <Reconcile_>`_).
|
|
|
|
.. image:: media/interbank02.png
|
|
:align: center
|
|
|
|
Save and confirm the changes to register the payment.
|
|
|
|
In terms of accounting the money is now booked in the transfer account.
|
|
We'll need to import bank statements to book the money in the final
|
|
accounts.
|
|
|
|
.. _Reconcile:
|
|
|
|
Import bank statements and reconcile
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Note that the bank balance computed by Odoo is different that the last
|
|
statement of your bank.
|
|
|
|
.. image:: media/interbank11.png
|

|
|
|
|
That is because we did not import the bank statement confirming the
|
|
receiving and sending of the money. It's thus necessary to import your
|
|
bank statement and reconcile the payment with the correct bank statement
|
|
line. Once you receive your bank statements click the **new statement**
|
|
button of the corresponding bank to import them.
|
|
|
|
.. image:: media/interbank07.png
|
|
:align: center
|
|
|
|
Fill in your **Transactions line**. Once done, Odoo will display a **Computed
|
|
Balance**. that computed balance is the theorical end balance of your
|
|
bank account. If it's corresponding to the bank statement, it means that no errors were
|
|
made. Fill in the **Ending balance** and click on the **Reconcile** button.
|
|
|
|

|
|
The following window will open:
|
|
|
|
.. image:: media/interbank09.png
|
|
:align: center
|
|
|
|
You need to choose counterparts for the payment. Select the correct
|
|
bank statement line corresponding to the payment and click on the
|
|
**reconcile** button. Close the statement to finish the transaction
|
|
|
|
.. image:: media/interbank08.png
|
|
:align: center
|
|
|
|
The same steps will need to be repeated once you receive your second
|
|
bank statement. Note that if you specify the same amount and the
|
|
same memo in both bank statements and payment transactions then the
|
|
reconciliation will happen automatically.
