I needed to register some expenses through an account move and wanted to assign the corresponding analytic account to the expense move line. However this expense is “shared” among various analytic accounts. Normally I will pick an analytic account distribution to do the job, but in the move line ana…

The distribution account is only for upper document like invoice, sale or purchase. At the level of the move line it is only normal accounts are allowed. The distribution accounts are just a shortcut to distribute at the move line level.

Thank you for the answer. Then what would be the solution to make it easier for the user to assign the analytic normal accounts without having to compute each portion by hand and input each portion manually. Do you think it is possible and a good approach that I implement the distribution code to do…

Having to fill analytic after the move has been created should be a very rare case. The analytic should be filled on the document creating the move because it is were the business data is known. So I do not think we need to create tools for rare case.

Ohh, no… I did not meant filling the analytic after the move. Let me explain it: As I understand the analytic lines are separate from the account move lines and they store amount information (debit and credit) independently. So when the move is “posted” the analytic lines are created based on the a…

[image] rvong: So when the move is “posted” the analytic lines are created based on the analytic account information assigned to the account move line. There is no such information on move line. It is the document like the invoice that create the analytic lines using the accounts defined on …

Personnally, I would have the need to use distributed account on move directly: for example I am creating Move for recording salary slip for employees, and depending the employee I need to fill analytic with several analytic account (employee working in several sectors of activity for example). cur…

For me this is a need because we do not have yet the proper document for payroll . Once such document exist it will be easy to add an analytic entry on the employee or payroll.

Pardon my ignorance, you were right! I did not read through the code, so what I had in mind cannot be implemented. I think I will try to find a solution going with the analytic rules. Maybe by adding some additional criteria I could have have my expense associated to a distribution and generate the …
