[Bug 740132] Re: account/Balance Sheet Report: accounts should show negative balances in case of credit asset or debit liability
Hello,
We are aware of this and a solution will be available soon.
We have decided to print the sign of the balance in reports. However, it happens sometimes that you might want to print a negative balance as positive and a positive balance as negative (eg: you generally want to see the income account as positive after making a sale even though the income account has been credited). To solve this, we will add a checkbox in the account form to reverse the balance sign printed on reports if desired.

Title:
account/Balance Sheet Report: accounts should show negative balances
in case of credit asset or debit liability
Status in OpenERP Modules (addons):
Opinion
Bug description:
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.
