The POS generates journal entries for both the amount of money the customer pays and the amount of money the POS user returns to the customer (the 'change'). Whether or not this is the correct thing to do is up for debate, but we can't change that in stable anyway. One of the main issues is that in 9.0 accounting will propose unreconciled payments belonging to the customer on open, unpaid invoices. This does not work well with the account entries generated by the POS. Accounting will propose the amount the customer paid, without taking into account the change. Example: a customer buys $7 worth of products and pays with a $10 bill. The customer gets $3 change. The invoice will propose the $10 payment. When you add that payment to the invoice a residual amount ($3 in the example) will remain on the paymentline, complicating everything even more. Although we cannot change how the POS does accounting in a stable release, we at least want people to be able to easily handle invoices generated through the POS. To achieve that this patch will make the backend match the payment to the total amount of the invoice removing any potential change. opw-671486
