Chapter: 5 - The Accounting Management Tools in the Odoo Accounting Module

Accounting Ledgers

Maintaining the Ledgers for the Accounting operations of the company will be beneficial to understanding all the financial operations regarding the company operations. You will be able to maintain multiple Ledgers for the operations of your business for different aspects such as sales, purchase, inventory, services, and many more based on the need. In the earlier days, the process of maintaining the ledgers was defined with pen and paper-based bookkeeping but as the technology grew the process slightly changed to a digitized process. In Odoo there is a separate Ledger management menu in the Odoo Accounting module. Here you will be able to define both General as well as Partner ledgers of operations for the company.

General Ledger

In General Ledger defined in the Odoo platform, the generalized financial operations in regards to the company will be defined. You can access General Ledger from the Accounting menu of the Accounting module. Here all General Ledger defined in operation concerning the company's financial operations will be defined. General Ledger will be displayed in classification concerning the Chart of Accounts that have been used.

Once you get into the General Ledger menu the filtering can be done for the Posted as well as the Account which is being defined. You can click on the extension to unfold each of the Accounts being defined to know more about the respective invoice or bill details associated. The entries of General Ledger will be defined with the Date, Journal Entry details, Partner as well as the Lbled of the respective entry. Furthermore, the Matching details, Debit, and Credit amount along with the Balance amount will be defined. The Cumulated Balance, as well as the Amount in Currency, will also be defined. In addition, you will have Filtering as well as Group by options that are available in the menu helping you to sort out the respective General Ledger entries of the financial operations of the company.

The General Ledger functionality of the Odoo platform will be a beneficial tool for the operations of the financial management operations of the company. Moreover, as General Ledger is defined based on the Chart of Accounts which have been defined you will have complete control of its operations. Let's now move on to understand the Partner Ledger management tools available in Odoo Accounting.

Partner Ledger

In the real-time business operations of many companies, associations with other establishments are required for smooth as well as effective operations. In certain cases, most of the companies which are operating are partners of the same company who have been defined. Therefore, the need of maintaining a separate Partner Ledger of operations should be essential. The Odoo platform provides a separate Partner Ledger menu available in the Accounting module.

In the Partner Ledger menu, all the respective partners in operation and their accounting activities will be defined. The date of the Accounting activity, Journal Entry, Account details, Label, Matching, Due Date, Debit, and the Credit amount will be defined. Further, the Balance, as well as the Counter Balance and the Amount in Currency, will be defined. Once you enter the menu the Filter on the menu will be auto-defined with Posted, Unreconcile, Payable or Receivable, and Partner. You will have other default Filters as well as Group by options available which can be chosen from default as well as you can create custom ones as you need.

Once the Filters and Group by sorting are removed you will be depicted with all the Partner Ledgers and will be defined without any alterations concerning the Partner of operation in the company. Once you select each of the entries you will be depicted with an Action Menu where you will have options to Export, Delete, Unreconciled, Automatic Entries, Reconcile and Create Asset available to choose from.
