Double-entry bookkeeping
|
||||
========================
|
||||
|
||||
Odoo automatically creates all the behind-the-scenes journal entries
|
||||
for each of your accounting transactions: customer invoices, point of
|
||||
sale order, expenses, inventory moves, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
Odoo uses the rules of double-entry bookkeeping system: all journal
|
||||
entries are automatically balanced (sum of debits = sum of credits).

|

|
||||
Accrual and Cash Basis Methods
|
||||
==============================
|
||||
|
||||
Odoo supports both accrual and cash basis reporting. This allows you to
|
||||
report income / expense at the time transactions occur (i.e., accrual basis), or when
|
||||
payment is made or received (i.e., cash basis).
|
||||
|
||||
Multi-companies
|
||||
===============
|
||||
|
||||
Odoo allows one to manage several companies within the same database. Each
|
||||
company has its own chart of accounts and rules. You can get
|
||||
consolidation reports following your consolidation rules.
|
||||
|
||||
Users can access several companies but always work in one company at a
|
||||
time.
|
||||
|
||||
Multi-currencies
|
||||
================
|
||||
|
||||
Every transaction is recorded in the default currency of the
|
||||
company. For transactions occurring in another currency, Odoo stores
|
||||
both the value in the currency of the company and the value in the
|
||||
currency of the transaction. Odoo can generate currencies gains and
|
||||
losses after the reconciliation of the journal items.
|
||||
|
||||
Currency rates are updated once a day using a yahoo.com online
|
||||
web-service.
|
||||
|
||||
International Standards
|
||||
=======================
|
||||
|
||||
Odoo accounting supports more than 50 countries. The Odoo core
|
||||
accounting implements accounting standards that are common to all
|
||||
countries. Specific modules exist per country for the
|
||||
specificities of the country like the chart of accounts, taxes, or
|
||||
bank interfaces.
|
||||
|
||||
In particular, Odoo's core accounting engine supports:
|
||||
|
||||
* Anglo-Saxon Accounting (U.S., U.K.,, and other English-speaking
|
||||
countries including Ireland, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand)
|
||||
where costs of good sold are reported when products are
|
||||
sold/delivered.
|
||||
* European accounting where expenses are accounted at the supplier
|
||||
bill.
|
||||
|
||||
Odoo has modules to comply with IFRS rules.
|
||||
|
||||
Accounts Receivable and Payable
|
||||
===============================
|
||||
|
||||
By default, Odoo uses a single account for all account
|
||||
receivable entries and one for all accounts payable entries. You can
|
||||
create separate accounts per customers/suppliers, but you don't need
|
||||
to.
|
||||
|
||||
As transactions are associated to customers or suppliers, you get
|
||||
reports to perform analysis per customer/supplier such as the customer
|
||||
statement, revenues per customers, aged receivable/payables, ...
|
||||
|
||||
Wide range of financial reports
|
||||
===============================
|
||||
|
||||
In Odoo, you can generate financial reports in real time. Odoo's
|
||||
reports range from basic accounting reports to advanced management
|
||||
reports. Odoo's reports include:
|
||||
|
||||
* Performance reports (such as Profit and Loss, Budget Variance)
|
||||
* Position reports (such as Balance Sheet, Aged Payables, Aged
|
||||
Receivables)
|
||||
* Cash reports (such as Bank Summary)
|
||||
* Detail reports (such as Trial Balance and General Ledger)
|
||||
* Management reports (such as Budgets, Executive Summary)
|
||||
|
||||
Odoo's report engine allows you to customize your own report based on
|
||||
your own formulae.
|
||||
|
||||
Import bank feeds automatically
|
||||
===============================
|
||||
|
||||
Bank reconciliation is a process that matches your bank statement
|
||||
lines, as supplied by the bank, to your accounting transactions in the
|
||||
general ledger. Odoo makes bank reconciliation easy by frequently
|
||||
importing bank statement lines from your bank directly into your Odoo
|
||||
account. This means you can have a daily view of your cashflow without
|
||||
having to log into your online banking or wait for your paper bank
|
||||
statements.
|
||||
|
||||
Odoo speeds up bank reconciliation by matching most of your imported
|
||||
bank statement lines to your accounting transactions. Odoo also
|
||||
remembers how you've treated other bank statement lines and provides
|
||||
suggested general ledger transactions.
|
||||
|
||||
Calculate the tax you owe your tax authority
|
||||
============================================
|
||||
|
||||
Odoo totals all your accounting transactions for your tax period and
|
||||
uses these totals to calculate your tax obligation. You can then check
|
||||
your sales tax by running Odoo's Tax Report.
|
||||
|
||||
Inventory Valuation
|
||||
===================
|
||||
|
||||
Odoo support both periodic (manual) and perpetual (automated)
|
||||
inventory valuations. The available methods are standard price,
|
||||
average price, LIFO (for countries allowing it) and FIFO.

||||

||||
|
||||
Easy retained earnings
|
||||
======================
|
||||
|
||||
Retained earnings are the portion of income retained by your
|
||||
business. Odoo automatically calculates your current year earnings in
|
||||
real time so no year-end journal or rollover is required. This is
|
||||
calculated by reporting the profit and loss balance to your balance
|
||||
sheet report automatically.
