Issue invoices and register payments
7979
====================================

You can issue invoices for Amazon orders in Odoo. Click **Create Invoice** in the sales order to do
82-
so. You can also do it in batch from the list view of orders. Then, confirm and send the invoices to
83-
your customers.
81+
Issue invoices
82+
--------------
83+
84+
Sending invoices to Amazon customers directly from Odoo is not feasible due to Amazon's policy of
85+
not sharing customer email addresses. Instead, it is possible to manually upload the invoices
86+
generated on Odoo to the Amazon backend.
87+
88+
In addition, for your B2B clients, it is currently required to manually retrieve VAT numbers from
89+
the Amazon backend before creating the invoice in Odoo.
90+
91+
.. note::
92+
For :doc:`TaxCloud <../../../finance/accounting/taxes/taxcloud>` users: invoices created from
93+
Amazon sales orders are **not** synchronized with TaxCloud, since Amazon already includes them in
94+
its own tax report to TaxCloud.
95+
96+
Register payments
97+
-----------------
98+
99+
As customers pay Amazon as an intermediary, creating a dedicated *Bank* journal (for example, named
100+
`Amazon payments`) with a dedicated *Bank and Cash* intermediary account is recommended.
101+
102+
In addition, as Amazon makes a single monthly payment, selecting all the invoices linked to a single
103+
payment is necessary when registering payments. Use the dedicated `Amazon payments`
104+
:guilabel:`Journal` and select :guilabel:`Batch Deposit` as the :guilabel:`Payment Method`. Then,
105+
select all the payments generated and click :menuselection:`Actions --> Create batch payment -->
106+
Validate`.

.. tip::
86-
To display only Amazon-related orders on the list view, you can filter orders based on the sales
87-
team.
88-
89-
As the customer has paid Amazon as an intermediary, you should register invoice payments in a
90-
payment journal dedicated to Amazon (e.g. Amazon Payments, with a dedicated intermediary account).
91-
You can do the same with the vendor bill received from Amazon and dedicated to commissions. When you
92-
receive the balance on your bank account at the end of the month and record your bank statements in
93-
Odoo, you simply credit the Amazon intermediary account by the amount received.
109+
The same can be done with vendor bills from Amazon dedicated to commissions. When the balance is
110+
received in the bank account at the end of the month and the banks statements are recorded,
111+
credit the Amazon intermediary account by the amount received.
