[Bug 675463] Re: [account] Poor wording in the Overdue Payments report

 

Can't say I like the new phrasing for the default due payment ...

Old
Would your payment have been carried
out after this mail was sent, please consider the present one as
void. Do not hesitate to contact our accounting department

New
Please note that the following payments are now due. If your payment
has been sent, kindly forward your payment details. If payment will be
delayed further, please contact us to discuss.
Would your payment have been carried out after this mail was sent, please consider the present one as void.

The new message seems to imply 2 possible actions when the payment has been done already:
a) forward the payment details
b) consider the present one as void

Does this new message have any backing from the ISO9001 manual then ? Is
it copy&paste ?

Title:
  [account] Poor wording in the Overdue Payments report

Status in Canonical OpenERP:
  Fix Released
Status in OpenObject Addons Modules:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The Overdue Payments report in the accounts module has the following wording:

"""
Dear Sir/Madam,
Exception made of a mistake of our side, it seems that the following bills stay unpaid. Please, take appropriate measures in order to carry out this payment in the next 8 days.

[[ message(o, company) ]]

Best regards.
"""

This is poor English and it most of the wording is hard-coded into the report. It would be better to remove the whole hard-coded message and to only have the company's overdue payment message i.e.

"""
[[ message(o, company) ]]
"""

That way the report can be configured to say what the company actual needs. Right now, the report is inflexible and unusable.
