I have a problem with the following purchase flow:


1-Purchase Order for 2 units at a unit price of $100 (total $200 before taxes)

2-Purchase Order for 5 units at a unit price of $150 (total $750 before taxes)

3-Receipt of goods, generation of valuation journal entry (Debit: Asset account/Credit: 21080101 Provision) 

4-Vendor bill posted, generation of journal entry (Debit: 21080101 Provision/Credit: Vendor)

5-Physical return of the last purchase (5 units), generation of journal entry

6-Credit note entered for the last purchase (5 units)


Odoo uses FIFO to value the returned goods, automatically generating a journal entry that posts the same account on both the debit and credit sides (21080101 Provision).

This entry only reconciles one of the journal items, leaving the rest unreconciled.

Additionally, from a conceptual accounting perspective, posting a movement to the same account on both sides is not correct.

How can I resolve this issue and reconcile all accounts?

Thanks

Hello

https://odoo-community.org/shop/purchase-stock-picking-return-invoicing-2162

The purchase_stock_picking_return_invoicing module creates a credit note when a return transaction is made and automatically matches all lines in the “Stock Provision” account, so there are no remaining creditor/debitor lines.


Manual reconciliation in accounting

After the return + credit note, you can filter the relevant “Stock Provision” account from the Accounting → General Accounting Transactions menu, select the debit/credit records of both the return receipt and the credit note, and click the Reconcile button. With this method, you will close all remaining lines manually
