[Bug 890193] Re: stock wrong help text

 

in stock.py 
        'property_stock_account_input': fields.property('account.account',
            type='many2one', relation='account.account',
            string='Stock Input Account', view_load=True,
            help="When doing real-time inventory valuation, counterpart journal items for all incoming stock moves will be posted in this account, unless "
                 "there is a specific valuation account set on the source location. When not set on the product, the one from the product category is used."),

we just learned that the valuation accounts are only used for virtual locations - it probably should be mentioned here too
... specific valuation account set on the VIRTUAL source location (PRODUCTION,INVENTORY)....

In German we have distinct names for all  these accounts.
see also http://www.principlesofaccounting.com/
Asset accounts
* stock valuation account (Lagerbestandskonto) - which holds the value of the products, ONLY defined in product category
* picking in/out valuation (Bewertete Eingangs/Ausgangs Lieferscheine) - which is the counter account to all stock moves which are invoiced - these are TRANSIT accounts 
P&L 
* Cost of goods (Warenverbrauch) - value of products used in production
* cost of goods sold - Inventory Change (Bestandsveränderung)
**  value of produced products (IN)
**  value of sold products (OUT)
* inventory difference (Inventurdifferenzkonto) - value of inventory differences (BTW which can not be posted currently in stock moves if it's value only correction)
