Re: How to import old invoices from legacy system
importing old and paid invoices is complicated.
you need to import invoices
and the payment entries. then you would need to reconcile them. consequently, they won't appear any longer in your list of unpaid invoices
next you need to reverse them: let me explain. as you enter old invoices, they would generate revenue and the yearly balance will go to accumulated profit on the balance sheet. But this will be double counted when you will import your actual opening accounting balances. so.. the easiest method would be to reverse (to zero-ise) the entries so that you start with a clean balance sheet.
hope this helps

That makes sense but I guess this will enter into "accounting" and affect many things (accounting-wise). These are invoices spanning more than 15 years and have been "processed" (for the lack of better term on my side). Also not sure I am able to create those balanced entries. So I guess I'd stick with Sale Orders. Best regards Radovan On štvrtok 9. júna 2022 12:17:26 CEST Pedro M.

How to import old invoices from legacy system
Hello, I would kindly ask if there is some guide on how to import old invoices from a legacy system. These were processed and paid long time ago so I just need them to be able to see customers' history. However accounting features get in my way when I attempt to import Journal Items (account.move.line) saying "Cannot create unbalanced entry". I guess this has to do with Journal Entries (not) being created as they'd normally do. Is there a way to do this somewhat easily? Or should I better map the data into Sale Orders? Any advice is greatly welcomed. Thank you. Best regards Radovan Skolnik
