This module allows to copy the reference when reversing an accounting move and creating a new draft one.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 14.0When you reverse an accounting entry in Odoo, the new draft entry keeps the same reference as the original one instead of losing it.
This module changes what happens when you reverse an accounting move (the credit note / reversal entry created from an existing journal entry).
Normally, the new draft move created by the reversal does not carry over the Reference field of the original move. With this module installed, the reference is copied automatically onto the newly created draft entry.
The behaviour is applied only in the reversal flow: the reversal wizard passes a special context flag, and the copy logic on account.move then adds the original reference to the copied values. The reference is not made copyable everywhere else, so duplicating a move manually in other situations is not affected.
Where it appears: - In Accounting, when you use the reverse entry action on a posted journal entry and confirm the reversal wizard, the resulting draft move shows the same reference as the source move.
What it touches:
- account.move (the journal entry / accounting move model), through its copy logic.
- account.move.reversal (the reversal wizard), which triggers the behaviour.
No new menus, fields, reports, emails or scheduled actions are added. The module only adjusts the reference propagation during the reversal process.
