[Bug 973099] Re: Error Message when assigning work to a task

 

The message that is generated is very misleading about where to look to
fix the issue.  I'm a new user checking out OpenERP, and if someone in
IRC (after 2 days) hadn't finally brought up the solution, I would of
been looking for a different product.  The wording makes you think
something is wrong with the employee.  It could be improved as Niels
suggested.

Title:
  Error Message when assigning work to a task

Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Create a new database, make sure following modules are installed; hr,
  stock, hr_timesheet_sheet, sales, project, project_issue, crm,
  project_gtd.  Create a project, create a task, start task, assign work
  to task, save task. Error Message.

  "Bad Configuration !

  No product and product category property account defined on the related employee.
  Fill in the timesheet tab of the employee form."

  The employee (Admin in this case) has "Service On Timesheet" set for
  Product, and "Timesheet Journal" set for Analytic Journal.  Using DEMO
  data, this works, so its a misconfiguration.  The error message
  doesn't give me enough to go on though.

  The problem was fixed by going to warehouse -->configuration-->product-->product categories;
  edit 'all products', set income and expense accounts.  The error message doesn't really indicate that.
