Title:
  [6.0][account_voucher] Payment of customer invoice with write-off
  differences will not set the invoice as paid

Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  We have an invoice for a customer with invoice amount set to 1169$.
  The customer pays 1000$ (because he's angry with quality) and we have agreed to settle the issue accepting 1000$. We decide to write-off the difference, 169$, to an expense account.

  I would expect that once the voucher is created and the write-off
  account and amounts are specified, as well as the invoice amount that
  is being paid, that invoice would be marked as "paid" (because we have
  accepted the difference between invoice amount and paid amount).

  Otherwise the user will always think that the invoice needs still to
  be paid!

  The account voucher should have the same effect as the maual
  reconciliation of accounting entries, as specified in
  http://doc.openerp.com/v6.0/book/3/3_7/accounting_entries.html:

  If you see a difference between the payment and the invoices to reconcile, you can enter the difference in the
  second part of the form Write-off. You have to set an account for the adjustment. The main reasons explaining the
  difference are usually:
  profit or loss,
  exchange differences,
  discounts given for fast payment.

  When the reconciliation is complete - that is the payment is equal to the sum of the due payments and the
  adjustments - you can close the reconciliation form.

  The reconciliation operation is optional – you could very well do it later or not do it at all. However,
  reconciliation has got two significant effects:
  marking that the invoices have been paid,
  preventing the payment and invoice amounts from appearing on customer reminder letters. Unless you
  have reconciled them, a customer will see the invoice and payment amounts on his reminder letter (which
  will not alter the balance due since they will just cancel each other out).
