One system for every post-dated cheque you issue or receive
Register, post, bounce, reassign and forecast incoming and outgoing PDCs with configurable GL rules, aging and cash-flow visibility, and bank-format cheque printing — all inside Odoo Accounting.
Cheques dated weeks or months ahead are still core to how businesses in cheque-heavy markets get paid and pay their bills, but standard Odoo has no concept of a post-dated cheque. Teams either book the cash too early, lose visibility until the cheque clears, or track it in a spreadsheet outside the ERP — with no forward view of when money actually moves and no clean audit trail when a cheque bounces or is reassigned.
Post Dated Cheque Pro brings the full PDC lifecycle into Odoo: incoming and outgoing cheques in one product, configurable GL posting per state, a guided bounce workflow with automatic reversal, payee reassignment with an audit trail, an approval threshold for high-value cheques, and aging plus cash-flow forecasting so finance always knows what is coming and when.
Everything a PDC-heavy finance team needs
Every capability below is implemented in the module.
Unified Incoming & Outgoing Lifecycle
Register, track and settle both customer (incoming) and vendor (outgoing) post-dated cheques in one place, through seven lifecycle states: draft, registered, deposited, cleared, bounced, returned and cancelled.
Configurable GL Posting Rules
Map a journal and debit/credit account to each lifecycle state per cheque direction, so every transition posts the correct, deterministic journal entry automatically.
Bounce Handling With Auto-Reversal
Mark a cheque bounced through a guided wizard that reverses posted entries (or posts a dedicated bounce rule) and opens a follow-up activity for the responsible user.
Payee Reassignment With Audit Trail
Transfer a cheque to a new partner through a reason-gated wizard that logs the old and new payee, the reason and the user for a clean audit trail.
Approval Threshold Gate
Set a company-wide amount threshold so high-value cheques require manager approval before they can be registered, with dedicated approve and refuse actions.
PDC Aging & Cash-Flow Forecast
See how far every pending cheque is from maturity with an aging report by bucket, plus a forward cash-flow forecast of incoming and outgoing amounts by month.
Consolidated Dashboard
A graph, pivot, kanban and calendar view of every cheque, with maturity badges highlighting overdue and due-soon cheques at a glance.
Bank-Format Cheque Printing
Print outgoing cheques on configurable bank layouts with field offsets in millimeters, automatic amount-in-words conversion and print-ready currency formatting.
Cheque Book Stock Tracking
Track physical cheque-book ranges per bank with automatic numbering on print and low-stock alerts as the book runs low.
How it works
Register the Cheque
Create a PDC for a customer or vendor, set the amount, cheque number and maturity date — the module assigns a sequential reference automatically.
Track Through Its Lifecycle
Move the cheque through deposited, cleared, bounced or returned as it matures, each transition posting the GL entry configured for that state.
Handle Exceptions
Bounce, reassign or batch-update cheques with guided wizards that capture a reason and keep the ledger and audit trail correct.
Forecast and Print
Review the aging report and cash-flow forecast for upcoming maturities, and print outgoing cheques on the correct bank format when ready to pay.

Frequently asked
Does this module handle both customer and vendor cheques?
Yes. Post Dated Cheque Pro manages incoming (customer) and outgoing (vendor) cheques in one product with a shared dashboard, so you do not need separate modules for each direction.
How are GL entries posted for each cheque state?
You configure a GL posting rule per lifecycle state and cheque direction — a journal plus debit and credit accounts. The module posts the matching journal entry automatically every time a cheque changes state, and reverses it on bounce, return or cancellation.
What happens when a cheque bounces?
Open the bounce wizard, record the reason and date — the module reverses the related journal entry (or posts a dedicated bounce rule if configured) and creates a follow-up activity for the responsible user, so nothing falls through the cracks.
Can I print cheques for different banks?
Yes. Define a bank cheque format with field offsets for payee, date and amount, link it to a cheque book, and print outgoing cheques with amount-in-words conversion directly from the cheque record.
