The document type is an essential information that needs to be displayed in the printed reports and that needs to be easily identified, within the set of invoices as well of account moves.
Each document type can have a unique sequence per journal where it is assigned. As part of the localization, the Document Type include the country on which the document is applicable and the data is created automatically when the localization module is installed.
The information required for the document types is included by default so the user doesn’t need to fill anything on this view:

If the Sales/Purchase journal are used without the option Use Documents it because they won’t be used to generate fiscal invoices, but mostly for account moves related to internal control process.
AFIP Information (also known as AFIP Point of Sale)
AFIP POS System: This field is only visible for the Sales journals and defined the type of AFIP POS that will be used to manage the transactions for which the journal is created. The AFIP POS defines as well:

The most common document type will be defined automatically for the different combinations of AFIP responsibility type but it can be updated manually by the user.
Electronic Invoice elements
When using electronic invoice, if all the information is correct the Invoice is posted in the standard way, in case that something needs to be addressed (check the section common errors for more detail), an error message is raised indicating the issue/proposed solution and the invoice remains in draft until the related data is corrected.
Once the invoice is posted, the information related to the AFIP validation and status is displayed in the AFIP Tab, including:
- AFIP Autorisation: CAE number.
- Expiration date: Deadline to deliver the invoice to the customers. Normally 10 days after the CAE is generated.
Result:
- Aceptado en AFIP.

:Fiscal Bond

For these transactions it’s important to have into consideration the next requirements:
- Currency (according to parameter table) and invoice quotation.
- Taxes.
- Zone.
Detail each item.

Electronic Credit Invoice MiPyme (FCE)
Invoices: There are several document types classified as Mipyme also known as Electronic Credit Invoice (FCE in spanish), which is used to impulse the SME, its purpose is to develop a mechanism that improves the financing conditions of these companies and allows them to increase their productivity, through the early collection of credits and receivables issued to their clients and / or vendors.
For these transactions it’s important to have into consideration the next requirements:
- Specific document types (201, 202, 206, etc).
- The emisor should be eligible by the AFIP to MiPyme transactions.
- The amount should be bigger than 100,000 ARS.
- A bank account type CBU must be related to the emisor, otherwise the invoice can’t be validated, having these errors messages for example:
Credit& Debit Notes: When creating a Credit/Debit note related to a FCE document, it is important take the next points into consideration:
- Use the Credit and Debit Note buttons, so the correct reference of the originator document passed to the note.
- The document letter should be the same than the originator document (either A or B).
- The same currency as the source document must be used. When using a secondary currency there is an exchange difference if the currency rate is different between the emission day and the payment date, it’s possible to create a credit/debit note to decrease/increase the amount to pay in ARS.
In the workflow we can have two scenarios:
- The FCE is rejected so the Credit Note should have the field “FCE, is Cancellation?” as True.
- The Credit Note, is created with the negative amount to annulate the FCE document, in this case the field “FCE, is Cancellation?” must be empty (false).
Invoice printed report
The PDF report related to electronic invoices that have been validated by the AFIP includes a barcode at the bottom of the format which represent the CAE number, the Expiration Date is also displayed as it’s legal requirement:
Troubleshooting and Auditing
For auditing and troubleshooting purposes you can get the detailed information of an invoice number that has been previously sent to the AFIP,
You can also get the last number used in AFIP for a specific Document Type and POS Number as support for any possible issues on the sequence synchronization between Odoo and AFIP.
供应商帐单
Based on the purchase journal selected for the vendor bill, the document type is now a required field. This value is auto populated based on the AFIP Responsibility type of Issuer and Customer, but the value can be switched if necessary.
The document number needs to be registered manually and the format is validated automatically, in case that the format is invalid a user error will be displayed indicating the correct format that is expected.
The vendor bill number is structured in the same way that the invoices with the difference that the document sequence is input by the user: “Document Prefix - Letter - Document number”.
Validate Vendor Bill number in AFIP
As most companies have internal controls to verify that the vendor bill is related to an AFIP valid document, an automatic validation can be set in
, considering the following levels:- Not available: The verification is not done (this is the default value).
- Available: The verification is done, in case the number is not valid it only raises a warning but it allows you to post the vendor bill.
- Required: The verification is done and it doesn’t allow the user to post the vendor bill if the document number is not valid.
How to use it in Odoo
This tool incorporates in the vendor bill a new “Verify on AFIP” button located next to the AFIP Authorization code.
In case it’s not a valid AFIP authorization the value “Rejected” will be displayed and the details of the validation will be added to the chatter.
Special Use cases
Untaxed Concepts
There are some transactions that include items that are not part of the VAT base amount, this is commonly used in fuel and gasoline invoices.
The vendor bill will be registered using 1 item for each product that is part of the VAT base amount and an additional item to register the amount of the Exempt concept:
Perception Taxes
The vendor bill will be registered using 1 item for each product that is part of the VAT base amount, the perception tax can be added in any of the product lines, as result we will have one tax group for the VAT and one for the perception, the perception default value is always 1.00.
You should use the pencil that is the next to the Perception amount to edit it and set the correct amount.
After this is done the invoice can be validated.
