[Bug 856751] [NEW] Wrong currency recorded from Sales Journal to Expense Acct

 

Public bug reported:

This is OpenERP server version 6.0. It was installed from the Debian
Package 6.0. Client version is 6.0.3. Platform Debian Stable.

I have a company which is in USD. I use the Anglo-Saxon stock accouting.

All price lists and price types are in EUR. In the pricing nowhere USD
appears anywhere.

All product pricing is consequently in EUROs.

When I sell products, the invoice is in EUROs, but income is recorded in
USD. This is correct. It means I sell goods for 10.00 EUR, and the
Income Acct is credited for 12.83 EUR.

However, both the Expense Acct and Stock Output Acct are debited and
credited in EUROs. This is definitely wrong. It means that the cost of
good is EUR 5.00 and the Expense Acct is debited for 5.00. But the
Expense Acct is defined in USD. The Expense and Stock Output Acct should
have been booked in USD as well.

I don't know what combinations of price lists and company currency will
induce this error, but I am sure that it results in some almost
impossible to track down discrepancies in accounting whenever different
currencies are involved.
