Guide / Copilot for Odoo / Attachments

Vendor bills

Attach the vendor's bill (PDF or photo) and ask the Copilot to record it. The Copilot reads it, finds the vendor by tax ID (NIF), checks for duplicates and that the amounts add up, and proposes the draft bill with the original attached.

Permission in Conectores ERPCrear y modificar registros (Create and update records) set to «Permitir» (Allow) or «Preguntar» (Ask). If it's set to «Bloquear» (Block), the Copilot reads the document but proposes nothing. With files in the conversation, «Permitir» works as «Preguntar».

In OdooThe purchase taxes for the rates on the bill (21%, 10%, 4%, IRPF withholding…). Odoo's Spanish localization already includes them.

What it does

  1. Reads the vendor's tax ID, the number, the date, the lines, the tax base, the VAT, the withholding and the total from the document.
  2. Checks your Odoo: the vendor by tax ID (if it doesn't exist, it proposes creating it first), bills from the same vendor with the same number (blocks) or with the same amount and date (warns), and that base + VAT − IRPF = total.
  3. Picks the purchase taxes for those rates and proposes the draft vendor bill.
  4. When you approve, the bill is created as a draft with your user, and the original is attached as the main document.

It covers the usual Spanish cases: IRPF withholding for professionals, intra-EU VAT (reverse charge), equivalence surcharge (recargo de equivalencia) and several VAT rates on the same bill. Amounts are in your company's currency.
