Odoo 15 Bank Reconciliation and Reconciliation Models

Functional Odoo 15 Accounting

Matching your Bank records with Account statements can be a hectic task and is prone to error if you analyze it manually. With a huge amount of data, it is hard to compare and contrast it between the bank data and the business data, and for that reason, it is a time-consuming process.   

Odoo has an advanced solution for managing this issue. Odoo can easily compare and contrast your payment document and Bank data no matter how huge the amount of data that you are processing.

This blog will give you a detailed overview of how to set up and use the Bank Reconciliation models in Odoo 15

Configuration and usage

It is easy to perform the reconciliation process with the Odoo 15 Accounting module. There are two ways or options by which you can perform the Reconciliation in Odoo 15. You can directly Specify the Payment on the invoice and can Reconcile open invoices with bank statements. 

You can create an Invoice in the Accounting module directly from the dashboard by clicking on the NEW INVOICE button, as shown below.

After the Payment Registration, we confirm to Odoo that the customer has made the payment in response to the customer payment. The REGISTER PAYMENT button from the invoice section shown below triggers the Reconciliation process. A quick configuration tab will pop up, as shown below, to configure the payment.
