HR Expense Analytic Distribution
The Employee can set distribution key on an Expense report to split all the expense lines in the by several projects.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 14.0Lets employees split an expense report across several analytic accounts by setting a percentage for each. When the report is posted, each expense line is divided into separate accounting entries per analytic account.
On an expense report (the hr.expense.sheet form), a new "Distribution" tab appears next to the other information pages. There you can add one or more distribution lines, each with an Analytic Account and a Percentage.
- The percentages on a report must add up to exactly 100; otherwise Odoo refuses to save and shows the message "Sorry, Percentage should be equal to 100."
- When the accounting entries for the expenses are generated, each expense line is split according to those percentages, and each resulting line is tagged with the matching analytic account. The last line absorbs any rounding difference so the total stays correct.
- The split only applies to expense reports that have at least one distribution line; reports without distribution lines are posted as before.
This module touches the expense report (hr.expense.sheet), the individual expense (hr.expense) and the analytic account (account.analytic.account). It adds a new helper model, hr.expense.analytic.distribution, to store the percentage lines, and gives all internal users full access to it.
