This module extends the functionality of accounting to allow the accounting manager to renumber account moves by date only for admin.
The wizard, which is accesible from the "End of Period" menuitem, lets you select journals, periods, and a starting number. When launched, it renumbers all posted moves that match selected criteria (after ordering them by date).
It will recreate the sequence number for each account move using its journal sequence, which means that:
- Sequences per journal are supported.
- Sequences with prefixes and suffixes based on the move date are also supported.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 12.0This module adds a wizard that lets accounting managers renumber posted journal entries in selected journals and date ranges, restarting the numbering from a chosen first number.
Accounting managers get a new wizard to renumber posted journal entries. It is available from the Accounting menu under Journal Entries, and is restricted to the accounting manager group.
In the wizard you choose the journals to renumber, a starting date and a finish date (both inclusive), and the first number to use. By default the dates cover the current year up to today, and the first number is 1.
When you click Renumber, the system finds all posted moves in those journals within the date range, sorts them by date, and assigns new sequential numbers using each journal's own sequence. If a journal uses date ranges, the sequence counter for the matching date range is reset; otherwise the journal sequence itself is reset. After processing, Odoo opens a list of the renumbered entries so you can review them.
If no posted moves match your selection, an error message tells you that no records were found. The module works with account.move and account.journal records and their sequences.

terminal Installation and usage
OCA documentation · Odoo 12.0Usage
Source · Odoo 12.0To use this module, you need to:
- Be an accounting manager.
- Go to Accounting > Adviser > Renumber journal entries.
- Choose the First number of the journal entry that you want. It will be used to start numbering from there on.
- Choose the Starting date and Ending date, to set when you want the process to begin and end.
- Choose the journals where you want to perform the renumberings.
- Press Renumber.
Now, the wizard will locate all journal entries found in those journals and dates, and start numbering them without gaps in a sequential order that starts with the First number you chose and matches the entry date order.
If no matches are found, you will be alerted. Otherwise, you will be redirected to a view of all the entries that have been renumbered.
