This is the other way around. In provider invoices you can set its bank
account to pay him because he can ask you to pay in one specific account.
In this case, you can have the default one, and if the provider ask you to
pay in another bank account, you could change it.
And I think it is better to have just a default value guess from
previous invoices than having to configure/manage it explicitly.
Because at the end, you still have to check it for every invoices you
receive because supplier will not warn you if he changes.
I don't agree:
1) In the business area I know, normally the supplier warns you if he
changes the bank account where he wants to receive the payment, because
the supplier changes its default bank account rarely and warns you to
prevent mistakes.
2) It's better to store a default bank account for the supplier than
guess it from the last previous invoice. Sometimes a supplier asks you
to change the bank account for only one invoice as an exceptional case,
the default bank account does not change and it is the correct one for
the following invoices.
3) It is the same solution used for the payment terms, a party has a
supplier (and customer) default payment term, but it could be changed in
an invoice if it is necessary.
Or even in some cases, customer hopes you to receive the amount of the
invoice from an specific bank account, because you can send to the bank a
payment order to receive from him. This bank account is not in the report,
but you need it in order to receive the amount of the invoice.
Yes, this is debit payment and this can only works once you get an
aggrement (a contract) between you, the customer and the bank. Such
aggrement must be registered in the system as most of the time it has a
period of validity (could be renewed) (and many others
limitation/condition). Solving this with just a default bank account on
the party is a naive solution.
The most usual agreement between customer, company and bank to send
debit payments has not period of validity (end date is undefined), at
least in Spain. So solving it with a default bank account for each
customer is the simplest solution and it is enough for most of Spanish
companies. Also it is very easy to understand for an ERP user, because
default bank account for payments behaves in the same way that default
payment term.
I agree that a most specialized module to manage payment agreements
between customer, company and bank should be developed in the future. In
this module the default customer bank account of a party could be a
functional field that computes the default bank account depending of the
validity of the agreements.
