Outstanding Accounts
3+
====================
4+
5+
In Odoo, before being recorded in your bank account, payments are registered through transitory
6+
accounts, named Outstanding Accounts.
7+
8+
- The :guilabel:`Outstanding Payments Account` is where outgoing payments are posted until they are
9+
linked to a withdrawal from your bank statement.
10+
- The :guilabel:`Outstanding Receipts Account` is where incoming payments are posted until they are
11+
linked with a deposit from your bank statement.
12+
13+
These accounts should be of type :guilabel:`Current Assets`.
14+
15+
.. note::
16+
The movement from an Outstanding Account to a bank account is done automatically when you
17+
reconcile the bank account with a bank statement.
18+
19+
Configuration
20+
=============
21+
22+
The Outstanding Accounts are defined by default. If necessary, you can update them by going to
23+
:menuselection:`Configuration --> Settings --> Default Accounts` and define your Outstanding
24+
Receipts and Payments Accounts.
25+
26+
You can also decide to use specific Outstanding Accounts related to a specific journal.
27+
28+
To do so, go to your :guilabel:`Dashboard`, click the menu selection ⋮ under :guilabel:`Bank` and
29+
click on :guilabel:`Configuration`. In the :guilabel:`Incoming/Outgoing Payments` tab, click on the
30+
dropdown column option to see and update your Outstanding Accounts.

35+
36+
.. note::
37+
If you do not specify an Outstanding Payments Account or an Outstanding Receipts Account for a
38+
specific journal, Odoo will use the default Outstanding Accounts.
