Morning all, I had a look through the blueprint for the Pro-Forma invoice [1], as it is quite important for the import/export and most of he B2C-business (payment in advance).
I think in the section 'Accounting' there is a misunderstanding: A Pro-Forma invoice is not triggering a financial posting. At period closing (end of fiscal year), an invoice that belongs to the previous year, but has not been paid or received in that period, is recognized with an accrual position in AR respectively AP. This *posting* is partly referenced as pro-forma-invoice as well. A pro-forma invoice may be printed and attached to the documents in order to explain the posting. It is reverted in the following year, and the original invoice is attached. In terms of use for Tryton this means that we should create an invoice document without subsequent financial posting. This should simplify the design. Comments? Cheers/Axel [1] http://code.google.com/p/tryton/wiki/ProFormaInvoice
