Sudden panic, in the haste of getting Tryton into production, we completely zapped a very important detail where the GL is void of purchasing’s invoice lines’ descriptions where in OpenERP we always had the product ‘[code] name’. We now holding back on posting for the moment, but jan-feb is already posted:-(

In Tryton it is blank since the description is blank for the vast majority of purchases.

Since the origin seems okay, I wonder if simply adapting the GL report to convert to text the origin if the description is empty seems to be a sensible workaround, but I wonder if the same should be used in when posting the invoice (that is, when description is empty).

Actually, I would even argue that it should always be used as such, since the product description is mainly for partner communication, _not_ accounting.

Similar issue with the invoice description itself.

Any body else come across this? Solution chosen?
