Yes understand. But is'nt it for now a worse usability? Having on sale and purchase 'a popup that says "one of your many lines miss an account".'. It is a complete different business domain than accounting. On sale/purchase you can not even set an account (not that I would like to have this possibility...). >> * Is it an idea to allow draft invoices with lines without >> revenue/expense accounts? >> (move the constraint to state != draft, cancel) >I don't understand what could be a invoice line without an account. It is a draft invoice line, of course. A salesman usually does not know which taxes and accounts are used. Sometimes he can not know. On purchase the same. A buyer can not determine correctly taxes and accounts before he has the supplier invoice in his hands. Finally it is always the accountant who is responsible to check draft invoices for the correct accounts before opening the invoice. And an accountant should know what to do, when the exception "one of your many lines miss an account" pops up.
