Exactly !!!

I think I have got a good idea what is needed, I'll give it a try

I just add here the mail exchange with the original author

Yes I think it would be better to make a general module out of it.
We included it in the Thai accounting module because that module 
implements various things Thai customers require and are not found in 
the default modules.
The first thing to do would be to review the module and check that it 
meets your requirements, i am sure there is some room for improvement.

thanks, I have seen this and I'll give it a try shortly
I will isolate the pc_xxxx tables and forms from the ac_account_thai module 
and put it into account_petty_cash which can be included then into base if you 
agree

Actually, i think maybe it would be better to reuse the purchase.order 
order instead of using a separate pc.payment object.
(and put a flag "petty cash payment" in the PO)
But i didn't have time to think further about this.

I'll look into it, but I think we have to distinguish the following cases
* cash in/out from/to the main cash/bank account or an intermediate account
* customer invoices
* supplier invoices
