Hello jlinkels,

Thanks for your proposal. 
We can consider 1,3 point as wishlist (We have to think on that so it can not consider for coming version 6.1),  and for 2 point communication string looks correct as it can not change to Name as you suggested (may be we can replaced it by Information, Transaction description....). We will improve tooltip as per your suggestion on 4 point.

Thanks for understanding,
Mustufa

Title:
  Entries in Bank & Cash are confusing

Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  OpenErp Add-ons 6.0.3

  The entries and headers in Bank & Cash are non-consistent and confusing.
  Communication becomes Name, Name becomes Statement, Move becomes Number.
  This lacks any logic  and no one is ever to understand how this holds together.

  When I enter a bank statement through Bank & Cash -> Bank Statements -> New
  I enter this:

  Name (on top of the form) STM002
  Communication: Add liquidity

  In Bank & Cash -> Bank Statements -> Journal Items I see:
  Move STM002/1 (Derived from Name on top of form)
  Name: Add liquidity (Discrepancy: Communication -> Name)

  In Journal Entries -> Journal Items I see:
  Move STM002/1
  Name: Add liquidity 

  Journal Entries -> Journal Entries
  Number STM002/1 (Discrepancy: Move -> Number)

  Bank & Cash -> Bank Statements -> Form -> Journal Entries tab
  Move: STM002/1 
  Statement: STM002 (Discrepancy: Name -> Statement)

  It is also totally unclear why these two list which should provide the same information yet are so different:
  Bank & Cash -> Bank Statements -> Form -> Journal Entries tab
  Bank & Cash -> Journal Items

  PROPOSAL:
  1. In Bank & Cash -> Bank Statements -> New:
  The form Name refers to the statement. So make the label Statement instead of Name. The functionality to derive Move from Statement is fine.
  Reason: This form IS about a statement
  Later on this statement is referred to as a Statement

  2. In Bank & Cash -> Bank Statements -> New:
  Replace Communication with Name.
  Reason: Name is used everywhere else.
  Name is not used anymore, has become Statement.

  3. In Bank & Cash:
  Replace Move with Number
  Reason: In all journal entries this action is referred with a Number
  This cannot easily be changed in all Journal views, but it seems
  to be local to Bank & Cash.
  Number is not used anywhere else in Bank & Cash.

  4. The help pop-up in the Bank & Cash -> Bank Statements -> New form:
  Make the tooltip (Help Popup next to Name) proper English:
  (Label Name should become Statement)
  "If you enter a Statement name other than /, the Accounting Entries Number will be the statement name appended with /1, /2, /3, etc. This allows statement entries to have a reference to the bank statement they appeared on."
