Hello Borja,
Thank you for asking this question ;-)
I think OpenERP is really poor in that case.
Is good to know that we are not the only ones with that wonder about
such things :)
Western European have this problem except in Belgium :-D
I'm joking, but I think it is a real issue to not take care of financial
purpose in such an ERP.
My opignion is that accounting must stay by country (due to specific law
and so on, like you mention), and financial purpose would exist in a
generic dedicated module.
I'm saying that for 2 year from now ...
At syleam, we started to developpe a module called "bank_deposit_slip".
It is localted at
bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/~openerp-expert-accounting/openobject-addons/5.0-improvement/
Actually it's just unstable version, and we did not took care on
currency.
It is base on a generic module (account_move) witch is about 50%
completed (but usable). This module does nothing else but writing moves.
At the moment, it centralise counterpart. I wanted this to be choosen
by user.
In bank_deposit_slip, you can chosse source (bank one) and
destination (bank two) journal. Then you have to select enries form
source, and click OK buton, that's it
It seams to suite to your need, does it ?
You will have to implement currency conversion as it is not done yet.
I have just taken a look to your module: It does not suite our needs
(I'll explain) but it is an interesting idea, pretty similar to the
"bank transfer wizard other ERPs have" I did mention on my reply to
Olivier.
I understand. But I don't totaly agree.
bank_deposit_slip was developp for check purpose (or pety cash in point
of sale). It based on account move, so whatever payment is done (wizard
or voucher) it will work.
Your problem is that you would ask user for the amount to transfert and
then it will write done the entry.
The module doesn't do that, it takes only existing moves.
The problem is that your module doesn't seem to be integrated with the
OpenERP "bank statements" (correct me if I'm wrong), so it is useful
for people that uses the "pay invoice" quick wizard, but not so much
for people that need to use the bank statements.
No, I don't the idea to write entries via bank_statement.
I think it's not a good behaviour. It has just been develop to save time
of one accountant in one situation.
Every where in OpenERP, if you want to do a second action not realy
related to one one you are actualy doing, you have to open a new tab
(onto another object) (via menu, shortcut, aso).
In this particular bank_statement, you do not open bank journal in a new
"normal" tab to write down a new move like every account moves. You just
put one amount on line ...
On Spain it would be hard to live without bank statements: Most of the
payments/collections (specially collections) are done through bank
batch orders. We even have specific bank data interchange documents
for most of the operations (N34 for sending payment orders, N19/N58
for sending collection orders, N43 for receiving the bank statement,
...). On the Spanish localization
<https://launchpad.net/openerp-spain> we have wizards to manage most
of this formats (look at the picture), so we can import the bank
statements easily. That means that using the bank statements allows us
to automatized most of the work.
Anyway, thanks for your reply :)
As you said, a wizard would do the tricks.
I totaly agree with Ferdinand to say that an intermediate journal is not
needed. If somethink goes wrong you will be charged, and so you'ill have
serval entries to do manualy.
