AI-generated from the code · Odoo 14.0

Lets a company pay a vendor bill on behalf of another company in the same Odoo database, automatically creating the matching journal entry in that other company so costs can be shared between companies.

In a multi-company setup, this module lets one company register a payment that actually belongs to another company. When you pay a vendor bill using the inter-company payment journal, a new field "Paid By" appears where you pick the bank or cash journal of the other company.

  • The "Paid By" field only shows when the payment journal is the company's due-from/to payment journal, the payment is inbound or outbound, and the partner is a supplier.
  • The same field is available in the "Register Payment" wizard, so you can set it while paying one or several vendor bills at once.
  • When the payment is posted, Odoo automatically creates and posts a matching journal entry in the other company, using that company's due-from/to account and the selected journal's payment account.
  • If the payment is changed and posted again, the previous entry in the other company is cancelled and its lines removed before the new one is created.
  • The journal list only offers bank and cash journals belonging to other companies, and hides journals already used as due-from/to payment journals.

It touches account.payment, account.payment.register and account.journal, and adds fields to the payment form and the payment registration wizard.
