I am still confused ....

"Entries Encoding by Move" allows you to enter any account.
so one can do
Bank A  100 Debit
Bank B  100 Credit

but IMHO this implies that one can NOT use "Entries by Statement" which obviously implies to enter ALL moves of a bank statement to get coorets sums for beginning/end balance.

May be I still miss something
Yeah, the "entries encoding by move" allows to do direct bank transfers, if you don't use the entries by statement...

You can't mix them. As you say, if you want to have the bank statements in OpenERP, you must always enter the bank moves via the bank statements to get the correct balance. If you create an account move by hand, it is not reflected on the statements.

   If I have one statement like this:

   Bank A initial balance: 0
   Bank A +100
   Bank A +50
   Bank A final balance: 150

   Then I create an account move:

   Bank A 100 Debit
   Bank B 100 Credit

   And then create a new statement... the displayed balance will still
   be 150 (last bank statement final balance) instead of 250:

   Bank A initial balance: 150 (wrong)


That's why we can't do a bank transfer with just one document in OpenERP (if you use the bank statements feature for both bank accounts), you need to create the entries in both bank accounts' statements.

Anyway, using an interim account seems a valid workaround on Spain, plus we mostly import the bank statements, so it is not a big problem having to create two bank statement lines instead of one "bank transfer document" :)
