In the menu Invoicing > Configuration > Accounting > Journals, create a new journal:
- Name: Checks Received
- Type: Bank
- Short Code: CHK (or any code you want)
- in the tab Incoming Payments, add a line with Payment Method = Manual and Outstanding receipts account set to the account for the checks in hand.
Note that, on this Checks Received journal, the bank account and suspense account will not be used, so don't worry about these parameters. The field Account number must be empty.
This bank journal will be available as a payment method in Odoo. The account you configured as Outstanding Receipts Account is the account via which the amounts of checks will transit between the reception of a check from a customer and the validation of the check deposit in Odoo.
When you validate the check deposit in Odoo, it will generate a new journal entry that will move the amounts from the Outstanding Receipts Account of the checks received journal to the Outstanding Receipts Account of the bank journal related to the check deposit. It will also reconcile in the Outstanding Receipts Account of the checks received journal.
