Use case

1. Requirements

   • Company to pay phone fee on behalf of its employees.
   • The payment will be debit to corresponding employee's payable account in payslip

2. Master data:

   • Create a current asset account. For example, 13881 for Vietnamese Accounting

   • Create a product Employee Phone Fee with 13881 as its expense account, no tax specified

   • Create a salary rule with the following setup (this requires either Odoo EE or the TVTMA Payroll which is published at https://apps.odoo.com/apps/modules/13.0/to_hr_payroll/)

     • Debit account: an employee payable account (e.g. 334 for Vietnamese Accounting Standards)

     • Credit account: the previously created account (i.e. 13881)

     • Salary rule's Python code

       result = sum(employee.env['account.move.line'].sudo().search([
           ('partner_id','=',employee.sudo().address_home_id.commercial_partner_id.id),
           ('date','>=',payslip.date_from),
           ('date','<=',payslip.date_to),
           ('account_id.code','=','13881'),
           ('parent_state','=','posted')]
           ).mapped('balance'))
