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

Definitely not. This would imply that pricelists in different currencies cannot exits.
Of course they can. Pricelists should contain the amount in the currency the pricelist
was defined in, and any booking is done in company currency.

As you say it, the user would have to manually calculate every price in company currency
which is nonsense. 

Please explain me what is the use for having pricelists in different
currencies if I have to enter everything in company currency anyway?

Can you also point out in the user manual where it is explained that when I have a
pricelist in EUR, I have to enter 1.28 as price since my company currency is USD?

Even when I have price lists in different currencies the calculation is automatic,
which implies that you can have pricelists in the currencies they are defined in.

Each pricelist is expressed in a single currency. If your company sells products in several currencies, you will have to create as many pricelists as you have currencies.

Also all OTHER accounting entries (like accounts receivable) are calculated
and converted correctly, ONLY the stock account adjustment adjustment is incorrect.

Title:
  Wrong currency recorded from Sales Journal to Expense Acct

Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  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.
