Hi Stéphane,


Thanks for this summary. I completely agree with this vision and the way
you suggest to split the various repo:

- Payment
- Import
- Completion & Reconciliation

On our side, we're thinking about how we gonna move our work to v8. Our
biggest trouble for us is about the volume of transaction we need to deal
with.

Currently we use the bank statement object to import not only the bank, but
also the payment confirmation from other financial institution (such as
VISA, Mast Card, Atos, ...). This lead to the creation of thousands of move
today in v 7.

So it may happened that we start a new module to cover this needs,
basically :

 * importing the payment confirmation in a new object "Batch Line"(no
account move generated this time)
 * matching the concerned SO/Invoice to run the completion (mostly the
partner) on Batch Line
 * on bank importation of the amount paid by the financial institute (e.g.
VISA), we'll have to match the N batch lines of payment confirmation
concerned by the amount received. We'll override the standard mechanism so
a bank statement line will be able to generate various move lines (in our
case one by batch line).
* finally, we'll create reconciliations with the moves of the concerned
invoices.

Don't know if it's clear, but well, we'll post something more detailed
about that. I just wanted to inform you.

In any case, I'm 100% with Stéphane's suggestion.

Best regards,

Joël
