Balance Sheet Reporting

The Balance Sheet report provides a single point of view for an organization's asset, liability, and equity details. Users can create customized reports using additional features from Odoo.

Cash-Flow Statement

Categorized into operations, investment, and financial activities, the Cash Flow Statement offers a thorough financial summary of cash inflows and outflows.

Deferred Expense

The money paid in advance for products or services that are never completed or delivered is known as deferred revenue. Since it is still received rather than earned, it cannot be recorded in an income account. In the Accounting module, it may be recorded as a liability, though. The general ledger, income statement (profit and loss), and custom reports that enable the examination of the amortization of delayed expenditures over certain periods are among the reports available in Odoo's accounting module for monitoring and analyzing deferred expenses.

The ‘Deferred Expenses’ reporting window shows the detailed reporting of all the deferred expenses of your company accounts.

You may receive a customized analysis of the delayed expense reports for your company needs by using the filter choices based on Dates, Fiscal Periods, Comparisons, Journals, Analytic Accounts, and other parameters.

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue in Odoo refers to income received by a company in advance of earning it, creating a liability on the balance sheet. This occurs when a business receives payment for goods or services it hasn't yet delivered, creating a future obligation. Odoo's ‘Deferred Revenues’ reporting of the ‘Reporting’ menu offers various reports to track and analyze deferred revenue, including Income Statements (Profit and Loss), General Ledger, and custom reports that allow monitoring of deferred revenue recognition over specific periods.

In order to record different forms of income, such as wages, salaries, and tips, to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for tax purposes, a 1099 form is utilized in the US. Common types include reporting payments made to non-employees, interest income earned from investments, dividends, securities sales, retirement accounts, pensions, annuities, and government payments.
