intransparent handling of account_move state draft/posted and various reports/lists - periodical validation of moves
Hi!
I just noticed that some reports/lists silently (without asking for this in
the wizard) check for account_move.state and some others not.
Combined with the fact that the "context" of the queries is mostly not printed
/ shown anywhere it is almost impossible to explain why different
reports/lists show different numbers.
As requested already multiple times OpenERP needs to get much more user
friendly in this respect to be successfully implemented.
So I would like to suggest to set "Skip draft state" in Journals for now.
IMHO no one expects to validate moves after having validated/posted invoices,
bank statements, automatically generated stock moves and others.
requiring periodical manual "Validate Account Moves" is not something I would
expect as default in a modern accounting system.
So turning off and requiring manual validation should be the exception for
special cases.
I also doubt that it conforms to good accounting practice to allow changes in
moves and move lines which might lead to inconsistency between validated "data
sources" and moves.
