[Bug 740132] [NEW] account/Balance Sheet Report: accounts should show negative balances in case of credit asset or debit liability

 

Public bug reported:

Hi,

in 6.0 and in trunk, when the balance sheet report is printed out, it is
impossible to point out asset accounts with a negative balance or a
liabilities with a positive balance. Consider the following situation:
an asset (say, a bank account) which happens to have a negative balance
does not show up with a negative sum. Therefore, it looks to the
employee as if the bank account has a positive balance. There are a
number of other scenarios in which this problem occurs, such as a VAT
return in case of a net loss.

Note that the end sum of the balance sheet is correct, but if you add up
all the numbers manually you end up with a different and wrong number
(the amounts are simply run through abs() in the RML).

Regards,
Stefan.
