Hello Erwin,

You are totally correct as per the documentation. This is a special kind
of case where we have write a things on documentation but we didn't
write correspondent code on addons.

Let talk about Sale_journal module. We have added a Invoicing Type
(property_invoice_type) on partner form view and Invoice type
(invoice_type_id) on sale order/delivery order as well as
"invoice_type_id" field are used only for passing I mean this field are
only transfer/copied(write) from SO to delivery order.

As per the doc we have provided a two different features on sale_journal module.
1) Grouping of invoice (for which this issue are reported).
2) Allow user to filter record easily by journal.

let's take a one example for 2nd point, We have created a two different
invoicing journal.One is for "daily" invoicing 2nd is for "End of the
month"  invoicing journal. Then our salesman comes on every morning
filter the sale order/delivery order of daily invoicing journal and
create the invoice additionally on 31/30 (end date of month) he also
filter the sale order/delivery order based on "End of the month"
invoicing journal and create the invoice for it which is working fine.

Currently sale_journals are really only meant to allows users to filter
easily by journal, but there is no automation of grouping or anything
that goes with it.

As per the doc "you can create the following journals: daily invoicing,
end-of-week invoicing and monthly invoicing. It is also possible to show
the invoicing journal by default in the partner form. Set the Invoicing
Method to Grouped (one invoice per customer) or Non Grouped (individual
invoices) according to your needs."

So it's certainly misleading... so  I am confirming the bug as low, and
we'll decide what to do on it... perhaps the simplest is to remove that
field and adapt the documentation.

I would  like to request that proper solution has to be discussed with
AL or FP.

@Antony/Fabien : you will take the final decision what to do on this
issue.

Thank you very much.!

Title:
  Sale_journal: "Invoice type" mismatch

Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hello,

  You can set the invoice type on a customer and set that all invoices
  of the customer must be grouped. But when you porces the delivery
  orders and make an invoice of it, you have to select "grouping" again.
  This is strange, because it is allready set at the customer. Now you
  can forget to select the settting and the invoices are not grouped.

  The response from openerp support is:

  Yes, you are right again, this behavior is misleading. We checked the
  code and found that nothing much is coded for `grouped` field in
  Customers form. The coding for merging invoice is done in Create
  Invoice wizard itself.

  We agree with you that this is misleading clients which should be taken care. We would request you to please file a bug report for this intended for Trunk version, because, this could be fixed by either removing the misleading functionality or by adding tooltip that describes the exact significance of the field or by implementing this functionality.
   
  So...I'll hope you just fix  this, in a way that if invoices are set to be grouped by the invoice type, the are grouped without selecting another option at processsing delivery orders.

  
  Erwin
