Payment Residual Display

This module adds residual amount display to customer and vendor payments in Odoo 17.

Features

• Residual Amount Field: Shows the unreconciled amount remaining on each payment
• List View Integration: Adds "Residual" column to payment list views (hidden by default)
• Form View Integration: Displays residual amount in payment form view
• Multi-Currency Support: Handles both company currency and payment currency residuals

How It Works

The module extends the account.payment model with a computed field that:

1. Retrieves the journal entry lines created by the payment
2. Identifies only the counterpart lines (receivable/payable accounts)
3. Excludes liquidity account lines (bank/cash) to avoid false residuals when matched with bank statements
4. Sums up their amount_residual or amount_residual_currency values based on currency
5. Displays the total unreconciled amount

Fields Added

Computation Logic

The residual is computed by:

• Filtering only receivable/payable account lines (excludes liquidity accounts)
• This prevents showing residuals when payments are matched with bank statements
• Sums the amount_residual or amount_residual_currency based on payment currency
• Uses company currency residual for same-currency payments
• Uses foreign currency residual for multi-currency payments
• This ensures accurate residual display regardless of bank statement matching
