Get paid with SEPA
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
SEPA, the Single Euro Payments Area, is a payment-integration initiative
|
|
of the European Union for simplification of bank transfers denominated
|
|
in EURO. SEPA Direct Debit allows you to withdraw money from the bank
|
|
accounts of your customers with their approval.
|
|
|
|
SEPA is supported by the banks of the 28 EU member states as well as
|
|
Iceland, Norway, Switzerland, Andorra, Monaco and San Marino.
|
|
|
|
With Odoo, you can record customer mandates, generate an SDD XML file
|
|
containing customer payments and upload it in your bank interface. The
|
|
file follows the SEPA Direct Debit PAIN.008.001.02 specifications. This
|
|
is a well-defined standard that makes consensus among banks.
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Go in :menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration --> Settings`
|
|
and activate the SEPA Direct Debit (SDD) Feature. Enter the Creditor
|
|
Identifier of your company. This number is provided by your bank.

Direct Debit Mandates
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Before withdrawing money from a customer bank account, your customer has
|
|
to sign a mandate. Go in :menuselection:`Accounting --> Sales --> Direct Debit Mandates`
|
|
and create a new mandate.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
.. tip:: SEPA Direct Debit only works between IBAN Bank Accounts.
|
|
|
|
Once you have entered all the information in the customer mandate, you
|
|
can print it and ask your customer to sign it. Once it is done, you can
|
|
upload the mandate signed by your customer on the mandate in Odoo.

|
You can now validate the mandate.
|
|
|
|
Customer Invoices
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Let's create an invoice for that customer.
|
|
|
|
When you will validate this invoice, the payment will be automatically
|
|
generated and your invoice will be directly marked as paid.
|
|
|
|
.. tip::
|
|
If you already had some invoices for that customer that could be
|
|
paid using that mandate, it's still possible to do it. Go on the
|
|
invoice, click on register payment and choose the Sepa Direct Debit as
|
|
payment method.
|
|
|
|
Generate SDD Files
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
You can generate the SDD File with all the customer payments to send to
|
|
your bank directly from the accounting dashboard :
|
|
|
|
.. image:: media/payment_sepa04.png
|
|
:align: center
|
|
|
|
You select the payments in the list that you want to include in your SDD
|
|
File, click on action and select "Generate Direct Debit XML".
|
|
|
|
.. image:: media/payment_sepa05.png
|
|
:align: center
|
|
|
|
You can now download the XML file generated by Odoo and upload it in
|
|
your bank interface.
|
|
|
|
.. tip::
|
|
You can retrieve all the generated XML by activating the developer
|
|
mode and going in :menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration --> Payments --> SDD Payment File`.
|
|
|
|
Close or revoke a mandate
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The Direct Debit mandate will be closed automatically once the end date
|
|
defined on it is reached. However, you can **close** a mandate earlier
|
|
than initially planned. To do that, simply go on the mandate and click
|
|
on the "Close" button.The end date of the mandate will be updated to
|
|
today's date. This means you will not be able to pay invoices with an
|
|
invoice date superior to this end date. Be careful, once a mandate is
|
|
closed, it cannot be reopened.
|
|
|
|
You can also **revoke** a mandate. In that case, you won't be able to
|
|
pay any invoice using that mandate anymore, no matter the invoice
|
|
date.To do that, simply go on the mandate and click on the "Revoke"
|
|
button.
