Hello, we have some ideas to impove the accountin system in a generic way
for version 6.0 I want share with you this ones to can improve between all
this behaviours.

1.-
Importance: HIGH
Object: Account.tax
Objective: The "amount" fields should depend of the time (possibly a field
one2many).
Reason:
OpenERP is a really new tool, and in this moment it is not a problem, but In
future when we have 5 or 8 years in market, with installatons with this
time, the taxes will be change and we need to can trace this values in the
time.
In latinamerica, the taxes can change even 2 times in the same fiscal year,
we are developing a module to improve this in version 5.0, but almost all
ERP tools have this feature out of the box, we think it should be included
in version 6.0

2.-
Importance: MEDIUM.
Object: product.product
Ojective: Trace the cost in the time.
Reason:
The global ecnomy is changing in really big Steps, we nee have a tool that
allow to us trace the price of our product in time, to can make analysis to
a lot of historical data, right now we need to make magic to know the price
for a product 3 month ago.
Solution:
Exactly like "suppliers" relation, and every time we recalculate the price
"average" or change by hand itself "standard" it should be recorded, if some
poduct has been sold with this price at least one time this "cost" can not
be modified you ned to add other one. We will explain this better in future.
For now even the Credit Notes for invoices are making has a bug in the post
of "cost move" because it is not taking in account the "historical cost"

3.-
Importance: HIGH
Object: account.fiscal.position
Objective: Explain the behaviour for this object.
Reason:
Probably it is working to solve some needs in specific countries, we push a
Question in launchpad an is not clear, anybody use this in the same way, we
need to have the explanation for the criteria to build cofigurations with
this object.

For now I think ti 3 are the more important.... I invite every expert to
fill this with other ones to organize and push some specific blueprint
"Thanks"
