Sorry but I disagree.  While I understand what you are saying - it is
still not right.  The error handling needs to be better.  If you click
OK and then try again you get an error which just says 1, then kicks you
out of config wizard.

But moreso, if you give the user an option to configure fiscal years in
initial configuration, then they should be able to configure fiscal
years.  If not, then it is a usability bug.  Imagine new user to
openerp, load demo data, then decide to configure to his country
standard year, changes it, then gets error, then tries to continue and
gets another error telling him he needs a maintenance contract.  What
kind of impression is that?

Also, this is new behaviour, this did not occur before.

Title:
  Config Wizard Chart of Accounts Fiscal Year error

Status in OpenObject Server:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  1. To replicate

Create new db - with demo data checked. (GTK Client)
Select accounting & finance module
During config select generic chart of accounts and change fiscal year to 1/4/2010 to 31/3/2011.
Press Configure

2. Result Observed
modal box - ValidateError Error occurred while validating the field(s) date_start,date_stop: Error! You cannot define overlapping fiscal years

3. Result expected - No error
4. Platform Ubuntu 10.10 64bit, OpenERP latest revisions (3072, 1708, 3983 server, client, addons) running inside Helios Eclipse, Python 2.6, postgres 8.4 - although have experienced on other recent revisions

Just tried to replicate with demo data unchecked and it works fine so my geuss is that the demo data is creating some fiscal years, which the config wizard is not happy about.
