Hello Community,

Ofbiz provides many ways to create transactions manually. Under accounting
summary, there are two links to 'Create Sales Accounting Transaction' and
'Create Payment Accounting Transaction' where the following screens come
populated with meaningful - valid - options in both Dropdowns for Debit Gl
account Id and Credit Gl account id. This is good as it prevents the user
from entering wrong / unrelated account Ids based on the transaction type.
On the other hand, the other forms for creating transactions don't provide
such filtering of the accounts allowing the user to select any value in the
three dropdowns - transaction type, debit and credit -. My question is why?
Are there cases - accounting-wise - that requires this kind of flexibility
and depend on the user to select the right account while opening the door
for entering nonrelated data? e.g. what would it mean to select Accounts
Receivable in the two entries of the transaction?

Regards,
Emad
