Journal Sequence

Purpose: This module enables unique and independent sequence numbers for each journal (e.g., Sales Journal, Purchase Journal, Bank Journal), ensuring better traceability and compliance with accounting/audit standards. It overrides the default behavior where all journal entries share a common sequence.

Key Features

  • Per-Journal Numbering Assign a separate sequence to each journal (e.g., MA/2025/001, LJ/2025/001). Each sequence resets yearly (configurable).
  • Configurable Sequences Define prefix, padding, and reset rules directly in the journal form. Supports dynamic year/month/date placeholders (e.g., %(year)s).
  • Accurate Journal Entry Traceability Easier audit trails and reconciliation. Matches standard accounting practices used in many regions.
  • Fiscal Year/Month-Based Reset Option to reset sequence per fiscal year or month.
  • Sequence Audit Track history of sequence usage across journals for audit reviews.

Odoo 18 Journal Sequence

Invoicing/Accounting -> Configuration -> Journals

Creating new journal

Once the Journal is saved, the sequence and refund sequence will get automatically generated.

Customize Sequence as per the need by clicking the sequence field

How It Works:

When a journal entry is created, the system uses the journal-specific sequence defined in that journal. The default company-wide sequence is bypassed for journals with a custom sequence configured. If no sequence is defined for a journal, Odoo falls back to the default sequence.

Setup Instructions:

1.Go to Accounting Configuration and select Journals
2.Open any journal (e.g., Sales Journal). 3.In the Journal Entries Sequence field, create or select a unique sequence. 4.Save and test by creating journal entries.

Benefits:

✅ Complies with regional audit and tax requirements (e.g., India, UAE, EU). ✅ Reduces confusion and improves reporting accuracy. ✅ Supports cleaner segregation of accounting operations.
