Hello Janis,

You have posted this bug report for two different issue.

1st is for proforma invoice and 2nd is on multi-company behaviour you
have faced the following error.

"ValidateError Error occurred while validating the field(s) company_id:
Company must be the same for its related account and period."

let's first talking about your second point which is invalid because
it's not a bug but it's behaviour.You can not validate the other company
's invoice (means your invoice belong to different company then your
user). For that you have to use "User Preference" wizard and change the
company according to you invoice. For more info and video would you
please check lp: 996453, Surely which will help you.

Now comes upon your 2nd issue, As you said after the proforma invoice
you can not validate it edit it. The final solution is you have to
cancel the invoice, Set invoice at draft state then you can edit it and
validate (But I don't think it's good process).

So As per my "Opinion" we have to check the invoice line at the time of
the proforma same as a validate time. If there is not invoice line then
we can not allow to proforma. For that I have provided a one use case
here.

Use-Case: We have use a proforma state for holding of our invoice . After the proforma state we can print our invoice and sent this invoice to customer for the validation (Which is the real scenario). In generalise way first we have proforma invoice, print the invoice send the invoice to customer for the approval for validation. If customer gives a approval then we have to validate it.
At this time assume that we don't have a invoice line and we have sent it to customer, So it doesn't make sense ;-).

So as per the my "Opinion" we have to check invoice line at the time of proforma.
Which will also solved your 1st issue and reduce the more useless steps as I said(Set invoice at draft state then you can edit it and validate ).

I will provide a brach for it :)

Thanks for the understanding!

Title:
  Invoice stuck as pro-forma forever

Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
  In Progress

Bug description:
  I create a draft invoice (in Accounting -> Customers -> Customer invoices) forgetting to add an invoice line.
  I confirm the draft as a pro-forma invoice.

  I cannot validate it to Invoice: "No Invoice Lines ! Please create some invoice lines."
  I cannot edit it as it is already confirmed: all fields in the edit mode are grey.
  I cannot delete it: "Invalid action ! You can not delete an invoice which is open or paid. We suggest you to refund it instead."

  A similar case I have in case of two companies. I get this error: "ValidateError Error occurred while validating the field(s) company_id: Company must be the same for its related account and period."
  And I cannot edit anything in the invoice to fix this (whatever it is - I haven't got it, yet).

  The OpenERP version is 6.1.
