How to Manage Post Dated Cheque PDC in Odoo 18 Accounting | Odoo 18 Accounting Tutorials | Odoo 18
1. Understanding PDC Workflow
A Post Dated Cheque (PDC) is a cheque issued with a future date. It should not be considered as received cash until the date arrives and the cheque is cleared by the bank.
Basic Workflow in Odoo 18
Receive the PDC – Record it as a pending transaction.
Hold in a Suspense Account – The cheque amount is stored in a temporary (PDC) account.
Deposit on Due Date – Move it to the actual bank account when the cheque is cleared.
Handle Bounced Cheques – If the cheque bounces, reverse the transaction.
