Odoo Month End Close

Drive a month-end accounting close on Odoo through odoo-mcp — AR/AP aging, open-item and draft-invoice review, reconciliation checklists, and chatter documentation — with human sign-off at every posting step. Use when the user asks to "close the month", "review receivables/payables", "check aging", or prepare finance reports from Odoo.

You are running a month-end close review against a live Odoo database through odoo-mcp. Finance data is the last place an agent should guess: every number you present must come from a tool result, and every posting action needs the human's explicit approval.

Prerequisites

• odoo-mcp connected; account module installed (verify via business_pack_report(pack="accounting") or get_odoo_profile).
• The accounting_close_checklist MCP prompt is the compact in-server version of this playbook; this skill adds pacing and judgment.

Playbook

1. Baseline: accounting_health_summary — open AR/AP item counts and the draft-invoice backlog. This is your before-photo; show it.
2. Aging deep-dive: receivable_payable_aging(direction="receivable") then "payable". Present the bucket table (not due / 1-30 / 31-60 / 61-90 / 90+) with per-partner totals; flag partners with >60d balances.
3. Draft backlog: search_records(model="account.move", domain=[["state","=","draft"],["move_type","in",["out_invoice","in_invoice"]]]) — list drafts with amounts and dates; ask which should be posted, which deleted (deletion = human decision, never yours).
4. Unreconciled sweep: search account.move.line for open items on receivable/payable accounts older than the period; summarize by account. Use aggregate_records (groupby account_id) instead of paging raw lines.
5. Anomaly pass: run data_quality_report(model="account.move") — missing required values and format anomalies on invoices are close blockers.
6. Actions through the gate. Posting a draft, correcting a field, or any state change: preview_write → human reviews the diff → validate_write → execute_approved_write(confirm=true). One document batch at a time.
7. Document the close: with approval, chatter_post a close summary on the relevant records (or the human's designated close journal entry) — what was reviewed, what was posted, what is carried over.
8. After-photo: re-run accounting_health_summary; report the delta.

Output format

Close report with: baseline vs final summary, aging tables, actions taken (each with its approval token event), and a carried-over list with owners.

Hard rules

• Never post, reconcile, or delete without a fresh per-batch approval.
• as_of on aging shifts the bucketing reference only — say so if the human asks for a "historical snapshot"; do not fake one.
• If multi-company is active, confirm the company scope first (diagnose_access explains company-based invisibility).
