How to Manage Bank Reconciliation in Odoo 16 Accounting

Functional Odoo 16 Accounting

Bank reconciliation is crucial for analyzing and determining whether there are any differences between the accounts utilized for commercial operations. If any deviations are found, you can take corrective action right away to make things right. Manually matching bank records with account statements will be challenging. Cash transactions in the business are tracked in cash accounts. Thus, it's crucial to keep them in sync with the bank accounts. Checking that the bank account matches the cash account is necessary to ensure this. Manually carrying out all of these tasks will be challenging and take a lot of time and effort.

The Odoo 16 Accounting module can be used to streamline the reconciliation procedure.

Reconciliation can be done from the dashboard of the module.

The list of statements that need to be reconciled can be found here by clicking the Reconcile button as shown above.

The bank statement reconciliation can be seen in this window. The statements are displayed on the left side of the screen in an order based on the accounting date. The statements have a ‘Matched' label, which denotes that the statements have already been linked with bank accounts. Statements marked "To Check" are those that require verification and reconciliation.

You can first configure a suitable reconciliation model to simplify the process. The Configuration menu's Reconciliation Models option allows you to do this.

This page displays existing reconciliation models along with information on their Name, Type, and Auto-validate status. Get a new configuration window by selecting the Create button.

You can choose the type from the available alternatives after giving the name of the reconciliation model. Depending on the setup type you choose, the remaining options may change.

Entry-generating Equivalent button:

You will see the Journal Availability field when choosing the Button to produce the counterpart entry option as the model type. Here, you can add a journal like Cash or Bank. Only the chosen journals will have access to the reconciliation model.

You can choose the Account, Amount Type, Amount, Analytic, and Journal Item Label under the Counterpart Entries tab. Fixed, percentage of balance, percentage of statement line, or from labels are the possible account types. The button to produce a counterpart entry model for reconciliation is available once the configuration is complete.

The screenshot below illustrates the setting choices for the Rule to suggest equivalent entries.

The Auto-Validate option is available here for you to activate in order to validate the statement line automatically. Following the mention of Journal Availability, you can choose an appropriate Amount Type from the list of choices, which includes Received (applied only when receiving an amount), Paid (applied only when paying an amount), and Paid/Received (applied in both circumstances). By doing this, the reconciliation model will only be used with the chosen type of transaction.

You can specify a precise amount in the Amount Condition, and the reconciliation model will be used when the amount is less than, more than, or equal to the amount you indicated.

Label, Note, and Transaction Type rules can be configured as Contains, Not Contains, or Match Regex. When the Partner's established field is turned on, the reconciliation model will only be used when a customer or vendor is already established. Turning on this option allows you to receive more fields to mention the Matching Partners and Categories. Enter Counterpart Entries in the available area using the Add a Line button.

Rule to match bills and invoices:

The setting window for the Rule to match invoices and bills reconciliation model type is displayed below. You can turn on the Auto-Validate box to automatically validate the statement line.

When using this model in the Search Months Limit field, you can specify how many past months to use.

Either Oldest First or Newest First can be used for the Matching Order. The settings we described before can be found under the Bank Transactions Conditions tab.

Furthermore, the Payment Tolerance will be activated for you so that you can tolerate variations in case of underpayment. The Same Currency field can be turned on to limit propositions using the same currency as the statement line. You can activate the Label, Note, or Reference to match the invoice or bill in the Match Invoice/Bill field. The configuration can be finished by configuring the Partner Mapping on the appropriate tab.

You can go to the Reconciliation option under the Accounting menu to acquire a list of all the statements that need to be reconciled.

You may quickly import bank statements into your system through the Accounting Dashboard of the module, which can then be used for the subsequent reconciliation process. Depending on the option you select from the Settings menu of the Accounting module, you can import your bank statements in the following formats: CSV, OFX, QIF, and CAMT.

The functionality is simple to use, and since Odoo automates most of its tasks, you may easily manage complex company data.
