AR Undefined Customer & Cash Advance

Park incoming payments whose customer is not yet identified into a dedicated Cash Advance account against a placeholder Undefined Customer partner. Once the real customer is known, the Assign wizard transfers the credit to the proper AR with a single click.

Audit-friendly parking pattern for "mystery" receipts — mis-coded bank transfers, partial remittance info, account-only deposits. No more delaying posting or guessing the customer.

Why You Need This

Receipts often hit your bank before you know which customer they belong to. Standard Odoo forces you to either delay posting or pick a wrong customer — neither audit-friendly.

 Without parking pattern  With this module
  • Bank statement piles up with un-matched transactions
  • Or worse — coded to "Suspense" with no clear identification workflow
  • Risk of double-allocation when customer eventually identified
  • Manual journal-entry shuffle when wrong customer chosen
  • Post payment immediately, partner = Undefined Customer
  • Cash Advances list shows every unassigned credit with [Assign] button
  • Assign wizard creates clean JE: DR Cash Advance / CR AR Real Customer
  • Source line auto-reconciled — disappears from unassigned list

5-Step Workflow

  1. Configure — Settings → Invoicing → AR Overpayment → set Cash Advance Account (Asset Receivable type) + Undefined Customer Partner (auto-create button available)
  2. Receive payment — record incoming bank transfer as Customer Payment, partner = Undefined Customer, destination = Cash Advance Account
  3. Validate — payment posts; appears in Cash Advances (Unassigned) list
  4. Identify — once customer is known, click [Assign] in the row → wizard pops, pick Real Customer + optional Target Invoice + Transfer Journal
  5. Confirm — JE created (DR Cash Advance / CR AR Real Customer), source line reconciled, entry disappears from unassigned list

Screen-by-Screen

  Cash Advances (Unassigned)

OWL dynamic view of every payment posted against the Cash Advance Account. Header shows Credit Lines count, distinct Customers, and Total Overpayment. Per-row Date / Document / Customer / Description / Journal / Currency / Amount / Age / [Assign] button. Filter pills for snapshot date, age bucket, and customer. Live search by customer or document. XLSX export.

Cash Advances Unassigned list

  Assign Cash Advance to Customer

Compact two-column dialog. Top: read-only Cash Advance Source (Partner / Document / Date / Amount). Middle: Identify Customer (Real Customer + optional Target Invoice) on the left, Journal Entry (Transfer Journal / Date / Memo) on the right. Bottom: Process notice describing the JE that will be posted. One click on Assign to Customer creates DR Cash Advance / CR AR Real Customer, reconciles the source line, and (when an invoice is picked) allocates the credit against it.

Assign Cash Advance to Customer wizard

  Journal Entry — Audit Trail

What the Assign wizard actually posts. A standard account.move in the configured Transfer Journal with two balanced lines: DR Cash Advance Account (Undefined Customer partner, clears the parking balance) and CR Trade Receivable (the real customer's AR account). Reference is auto-generated as "Cash advance assigned to <Customer>" so anyone opening the JE later knows exactly what happened — full audit trail, nothing hidden.
