现金折扣与税收减免

Cash discounts are reductions in the amount a customer must pay for goods or services offered as an incentive for paying their invoice promptly. These discounts are typically a percentage of the total invoice amount and are applied if the customer pays within a specified time. Cash discounts can help the company maintain a steady cash flow.

Example

You issue a €100 invoice on the 1st of January. The full payment is due within 30 days, and you also offer a 2% discount if your customer pays you within seven days.

The customer can pay €98 up to the 8th of January. After that date, they would have to pay €100 by the 31st of January.

A tax reduction can also be applied depending on the country or region.

配置

To grant cash discounts to customers, you must first set up the type of tax reduction, verify the gain and loss accounts, and configure new payment terms.

Tax reductions

Depending on the country or region, the base amount used to compute the tax can vary, which can lead to a tax reduction.

To configure how the tax reduction is applied, go to Accounting ‣ Configuration ‣ Settings, and in the Taxes section, in the Cash Discount Tax Reduction feature, select one of the three following options:

始终(根据发票)

The tax is always reduced. The base amount used to compute the tax is the discounted amount, whether the customer benefits from the discount or not.

关于提前付款

The tax is reduced only if the customer pays early. The base amount used to compute the tax is the same as the sale: if the customer benefits from the reduction, then the tax is reduced. This means that, depending on the customer, the tax amount can vary after the invoice is issued.

从不

The tax is never reduced. The base amount used to compute the tax is the full amount, whether the customer benefits from the discount or not.

Example

You issue a €100 invoice (tax-excluded) on the 1st of January, with a 21% tax rate. The full payment is due within 30 days, and you also offer a 2% discount if your customer pays you within seven days.

Cash discount gain/loss accounts

With a cash discount, the amount you earn depends on whether the customer benefits from the cash discount or not. This inevitably leads to gains and losses, which are recorded on default accounts.

To modify these accounts, go to Accounting ‣ Configuration ‣ Settings, and in the Default Accounts section, select the accounts you want to use for the Cash Discount Gain account and Cash Discount Loss account.

付款条件

Cash discounts are defined on payment terms. Configure them to your liking by going to Accounting ‣ Configuration ‣ Payment Terms, and make sure to fill out the fields Discount % and Discount Days.

Configuration of payment terms named "2/7 Net 30". The field "Description on Invoices" reads: "Payment terms: 30 Days, 2% Early Payment Discount under 7 days".

Apply a cash discount to a customer invoice

Apply a cash discount to a customer invoice by selecting the payment terms you created. Odoo automatically computes the correct amounts, tax amounts, due dates, and accounting records.

Under the Journal Items tab, you can display the discount details by clicking on the “toggle” button and adding the Discount Date and Discount Amount columns.

An invoice of €100.00 with "2/7 Net 30" selected as payment terms. The "Journal Items" tab is open, and the "Discount Date" and "Discount Amount" columns are displayed.

The discount amount and due date are also displayed on the generated invoice sent to the customer.

An invoice of €100.00 with the following text added to the terms and conditions: "30 Days, 2% Early Payment Discount under 7 days. 118.58 € due if paid before 01/08/2023."

Payment reconciliation

When you record a payment or reconcile your bank statements, Odoo takes the customer payment’s date into account to define if they can benefit from the cash discount or not.

注解

If your customer pays the discount amount after the discount date, you can always decide whether to mark the invoice as fully paid with a write-off or as partially paid.
