[IMP] improved planner content
[IMP] Misc usability improvement:
cost instead of sale price on product form
improved views and terminologies
journal entry is RO
1/ Modify the no content help message for hr_expense with a dynamic part
which describe how to create a new expense by mail
2/ Mail gateway mechanism. New customizable email alias expense@domain
that creates a new expense by sending an email to it. Check several things
- Check that the email_from is the same than one of the employees or than
on of the related users to employees. If not, send back an email to say that
the expense will not be created.
- If the email address is valid, check if something is between brackets '[]'
If it is the case, check if it is linked to a product internal reference
and set it accordingly. If nothing is found, use a default product
'Fixed Cost'
- If one/several float(s) are found in the mail subject, take the last
occurence and set it as the expense total amount.
3/ If a product template is created, to not add taxes on it. We don't expect it
to have additional taxes
4/ Under Expenses -> Configuration -> Expense Product, use a simplified product
view with only the needed fields.
5/ When generating the account move lines, use the account defined on the expense
line, not the sheet
6/ When creating a payment, make a reconciliation on the payable account move lines
That way, if the total amount on the expense is paid, the expense will be set to
paid automatically when registering a payment
7/ Add a one-page planner to explain how to use the email alias
8/ The field account_id on the expense sheet was informative. After some tests, it
seems that it's more confusing than helping. So we removed it
9/ Add a domain on the field 'bank_journal_id' to select journals of
type 'cash' or 'bank'
10/ If the number of expense lines is equal to 1, the expense summary on the expense
sheet should be the same name the line. So the process can be done in one click
NB:
- The option no_delete is not working, a fix will come from chm
- The many2many widget on a sheet creation is not working correctly as
the called command is a (1, id, values) without a (4, id, _) before.
A fix will also come from chm, but a disgusting hack has been
provided for this particular case (to remove after chm fix)
Currently there is a selection field 'account_type' on the
account.analytic.account model with 2 values : Active or Archived
Let's use an active field instead and add a Archive stat button on the
form. That way, we can remove all the domain ('account_type','=','normal')
which are implicit with the generic active field behavior
When comparing floats, `float_compare` must always
be used to avoid precision issues.
e.g., percentages like 1.0000000000000002
must be considered as equal to 1.

It is using an already existing field that wasn't used anymore ('account_type') but as a lot of domains on analytic accounts were
- wrong (still using old fields state and type that have been removed as well in the same commit),
- or defined directly in the views
so, an update of some modules may be needed in order to avoid further problems.
The journal_id field was required which prevented to install the module without
chart of account in demo mode.
Force the journal only when generating the entries ibnstead.
