Dear David and all, "Click and dirty" way in accounting should not exist. The Macintosh is easy to use and not dirty. So should be OpenERP accounting process. We are in the domain of legal regulations. The problem with the "Pay" button is not that it closes the invoice. I would only like payment and invoice to be validated. Just like it is in the other payment feature, which is presented in lines. Furthermore, if this feature is really "quick and dirty", it should only be available after some configuration and disabled by default. Think about the hundreds of users who registered invoices and then clicked "Pay" thinking it would only create an entry in the bank journal. Users are trapped, as they cannot cancel payment. And then no bank reconciliation is possible, therefore their whole work in accounting is destroyed. Just clicking ONCE on pay in the invoice make bank reconciliation impossible. If you follow discussions on the French forum, we are getting very upset with this "quick and dirty" feature. The Pay button should not close accounts. OpenERP as legal tool cannot stay like that for the French market or would probably be banned. You cannot use an ERP with such feature available for everyone. What would you propose? Telling us we should disable this button is not a solution. We are looking for solutions at OpenERP level, to make successful features available for everyone. If Windows explodes on startup, you cannot tell us to go to registry and fix an entry. We have to fix the product itsel. At least, for accounting, which a mandatory domain, it HAS to be FIXED.
