Public bug reported:

Dear all,

This is OpenERP 6.03 with French localisation, so I am translating terms
into English.

The problem:

The "Pay" button in a client or supplied invoice will reconcile payment and letter entries (sorry for my English).
As a result, an invoice paid using the button cannot be added to the bank reconciliation wizard.

Also, what is strange is the OpenERP provides payment lines, in :
Accounting > Clients > Pay clients
Accounting > Suppliers > Pay suppliers
This payment feature in "lines" work perfectly.

A possible solution:
The "pay" button in invoices should behave exactly the same as when paying in "lines".
Lettering and closing entries should only happen during bank statement reconciliation.

For me, this is a major problem, as:
* one feature (pay) cannot behave differently at two places in software, this is confusing.
* in accounting, you cannot letter simply by clicking on a button. You can only reconcile after looking at a bank statement.
* not using bank statements in accounting is illegal and would make OpenERP illegal in some countries, probably all European countries.

On French forum, several users reported they could not use OpenERP
because after clicking "Payment", they could not reconcile their bank
statement. So users are really looking for a clarification of the
process of payment and then bank reconciliation.

Kind regards,
Kellogs
