auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 17.0For Ecuadorian companies, this module lets you classify credit notes as either a discount or a return, and automatically picks the right accounting account for each product line based on settings at company, product category or product level.
When you create a credit note for a customer invoice in an Ecuadorian company, a new field "Credit note type" appears on the credit note form, with two choices: Discount or Return. The same choice is offered in the credit note wizard that opens when you use the Reverse/Credit Note button on a customer invoice.
The module adds two accounting account fields, "C.C. Discount" and "C.C. Refund", in several places: - In Accounting settings, under the Ecuador section, as default accounts for credit notes. - On each product category and each product, so you can override the default per category or per product.
When a product line is added to a customer credit note, Odoo looks for the account in this order: first the product, then its product category, then the company default. The account used depends on whether the credit note is a Discount or a Return.
For Discount credit notes, the module also skips the automatic cost-of-goods-sold (Anglo-Saxon) stock accounting entries, so no COGS lines are created for those refunds. The credit note type is carried over from the wizard to the created credit note, and it is required on customer credit notes.
