Letter of Credit (LC) Management
for Odoo

Convert POs into fully tracked Letters of Credit then let Odoo handle the accounting. Create an LC from a Purchase Order in one click, progress it through Draft - Issuance - Approved - Document Checking - Closed/Cancelled, and automatically post the right journal entries at approval and closure. Bank fees and LC coverage amounts are capitalized as landed costs to keep product valuation accurate, while shipment legs (from/to/via/date), commercial terms, and attachments live in a single record. Finance configures LC and stock input accounts plus the “Bank Fees” product once in Settings; the module uses them everywhere, ensuring consistent postings and audit-ready trails with linked journal entries and receipt status badges. Ideal for import-heavy businesses trading, manufacturing, distribution this add-on eliminates manual journals, tightens compliance, and delivers true cost visibility from PO to inventory.

All Features

Create & manage LCs against Purchase Orders. From the PO, users can open an LC record with one click and track it through clear stages: Draft - LC Issuance - LC Approved - Document Checking - LC Closed/Cancelled.
Automated accounting entries. When an LC is approved or closed, the module posts the correct journal entries using company-configured accounts (LC account, stock input, bank account, expense account for bank fees, partner payable).
Cost capitalization via Landed Costs. Once related receipts are completed, the LC coverage amount (and bank fee product) is applied as a landed cost, fairly adding to the inventory valuation.
Shipment and terms tracking. Capture shipment legs (from/to/via/date), partial & transshipment rules, and store commercial terms, payment terms, and attachments in one place.

Letter of Credit (LC) Management

Gain full control over Letter of Credit purchases procurement and finance create clean, compliant LCs straight from confirmed Purchase Orders, with zero manual journals. A guided flow moves each LC through Draft - Issuance - Approved - Document Checking - Closed/Cancelled, while accounts and products configured in Settings drive automatic journal entries at approval/closure. After receipt, LC coverage and bank fees are capitalized as landed costs for true product valuation no spreadsheet work. Shipment legs (from/to/via/date), commercial terms, and attachments stay in one record, and smart buttons link every journal entry back to the LC and originating PO for airtight audit trails. Whether you’re tightening compliance, improving costing accuracy, or speeding month-end close, this module standardizes LC handling, reduces errors, and keeps your purchasing and accounting perfectly in sync.

  • One-Click LC from Purchase Order

Configure LC Accounts & Bank Fees

Set the posting backbone for LCs. Choose the LC Account, Stock Input Account, and the Bank Fees (service product) used for charges. These settings drive the automatic journal entries at Approve/Close and the landed cost capitalization after receipts so costing and audit trails stay consistent across all LCs.

Create LC & Define Coverage

Open a new Letter of Credit from the Purchase Order and capture the essentials: applicant/beneficiary, issuing bank, expiry date, and bank fees. Set the Amount (Fixed or %), then choose the Coverage type (Uncovered/Partial/Fully Covered) the system auto-computes net and cover amounts. Add shipment legs and any terms or attachments so finance, logistics, and audit all work from one source of truth. When ready, move to LC Issuance.

LC Issuance

Review the LC details and confirm issuance. Once issued, the record is locked for structure changes and ready for financial approval. Ensure coverage, bank fees, shipment legs, and expiry are correct this snapshot becomes the basis for subsequent approvals, document checks, and accounting entries.

LC Approved – Post Initial Entries

The LC is formally approved. The system posts the initial journal entry based on your configured LC, bank, and expense accounts, and locks in the approved coverage and fees. Use the smart button to view the generated Journal Entry; proceed to Document Checking once bank documents begin flowing.

Document Checking

Verify shipping and bank documents against LC terms invoice, packing list, BL/AWB, insurance, and certificates. Attach files, confirm shipment legs, and resolve discrepancies before closure. This stage ensures the approved coverage and fees align with received documents so the final accounting and landed cost capitalization proceed cleanly.

LC Closed – Final Posting & Costing

Close the LC after documents are verified and goods are received. The system posts the final journal entry and applies the LC coverage/bank fees as landed costs to inventory, ensuring accurate product valuation. All attachments and journal links remain for audit nothing left manual.

One-Click LC from Purchase Order

Kick off the LC process directly from the PO with LC Letter. This creates a prefilled LC linked to the order (vendor, company, currency), avoiding duplicate data entry and ensuring full traceability from procurement to accounting. If an LC already exists for this PO, the button switches to a quick view of all related LCs.
