Introduction

The Purchase Advance Payment module extends Odoo to support registering and managing advance payments (down payments) directly from purchase orders. It helps businesses prepay suppliers, track those payments inside the purchase workflow, and automatically reconcile them with vendor bills. This module ensures clearer accounting, better cash flow visibility, and smoother reconciliation between prepayments and supplier invoices—delivering a more robust procurement process.

  • Opens a wizard to specify journal, payable amount, and payment date

  • Lists all advance payments under a dedicated “Payment Advance” tab on the purchase order

  • Automatically applies advance payments to vendor bills when invoiced

  • Displays outstanding debits and allows reconciliation via “Add” action

  • Supports multiple advance payments per purchase order

  • Integrates with accounting, purchase, and mail modules for full workflow
