The wording issue between "cancel" (action workflow) and button "cancel" in a dialog box which users are accustomed to use to close the dialog without any action being performed is critical. I had customers waist hours because of this before they learned (on oerp 6.1) to distrust any button with "cancel" as a label and use the "X" window button to close such dialogs.
IMO, this issue cannot be solved by moving the "cancel" workflow action to a different place : in some UI, the dialog cancel button is on the left, in others it's on the right... The correct solution is rather to use a different verb altogether for the workflow action. It must be different from "cancel" (or "Annuler" in French) because these are identified to do something different by users. Possible english verbs include: * void * invalidate * withdraw -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenERP Indian Team, which is subscribed to OpenERP Addons. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1103426 Title: [Trunk/7.0] Naming issue on cancel button of project issue Status in OpenERP Addons (modules): Fix Committed Bug description: In some cases, the next stages available are "Done" and "Cancel". In this cases, when a user Edits the document, and then wishes to exit from edit mode without making changes, most of the time he will click "Cancel" instead of "Discard", which *saves the changes* and changes the State to "cancelled"! In the case of Project Issues, it's even worse, since you aren't offered with the option to reopen the issue.
