Vietnam Payroll - Accounting Integration
Automate payroll accounting entries with Vietnamese Accounting Standards
Payroll management is one of the important issues for every business. However, this work takes a lot of time and effort for separate cost accounting for each department. It is essential to have established accounting models for each salary rule.
Key Features
Built natively on Odoo/Viindoo to streamline real business operations:
Pre-mapped Salary Rule Accounting — VAS-compliant by default
- Every Vietnamese salary rule receives correct debit/credit accounts at company creation.
- Gross Wage (GROSS) → Credit Account 334 (Payables to Staff).
- Personal Income Tax (PTAX) → Debit Account 3335 / Credit Account 334.
- Harmful-Work Allowance (HARMFUL) → Credit Account 334 with analytic distribution.
- No manual mapping, no copy-paste from accounting cheat sheets.
Full Social Insurance Coverage — Both Sides of the Equation
- Social Insurance (ESINS / CSINS) → Account 3383, split correctly between employee deduction and company expense.
- Health Insurance (EHINS / CHINS) → Account 3384.
- Labor Union Fee (ELUF / CLUF) → Account 3382.
- Unemployment Insurance (EUEINS / CUEINS) → Account 3385 or 3386.
- Employee contributions and company contributions automatically booked on opposite sides.
Circular 99 vs Circular 133 — Automatically Detected
- Different Vietnamese circulars use different sub-account codes for Unemployment Insurance.
- Circular 133/2016/TT-BTC (SMEs) → Account 3385.
- Circular 99/2025/TT-BTC (Large enterprises) → Account 3386.
- The module reads your chart template and applies the right code automatically.
- No fork in the configuration, no separate setup per company size.
Department-wise Cost Allocation via Analytic Accounting
- Every company-paid payroll item carries
analytic_option = debit_account.
- The department expense account automatically drives analytic distribution.
- Clean per-department cost analysis, ready for management reports.
- Accurate budget tracking with no extra setup.
Auto-applies on Install AND Chart Template Load
- post_init_hook: existing Vietnamese companies are updated instantly on install.
- Chart template load override: new Vietnamese companies get correct mapping at setup time.
- Two trigger points keep your setup correct in any scenario.
- Order of installation doesn't matter — you always end up with the right result.
