Account Move Template Keywords view

[Khurram Shahzad]

Dear All,

I have created an account move template in "Journals" of financial configuration. I have also defined some "Keywords" with the newly-defined template. Now, when I run "Create Move from Template" for this template, a screen displays the "Keywords" and inputs data for these keywords. I entered the data for the keywords but I am unable to find that data from anywhere!

I tried:
The journal where I saved the move
The move itself

Can anybody tell me where I can find the values for these keywords entered for a specific move?

Thanking you in anticipation.

Regards,
Khurram.

They are not stored but of course you will find them on the resulted
move where they are used.

Where can I find them as they are not visible on the resulted move?

Why do you ask them if you do not use them to construct move?

Why do you ask them if you do not use them to construct move?

I used those fields to construct my move. Perhaps, I'm unable to clearly explain the problem! Let me try it again.

I created an Account Move Template named "Bank Payment Move Template". In this template I created following two fields:

1) Name: cheque_number, string: Cheque Number, Type: Char, Required: true

2) Name: cheque_date, string: Cheque Data, Type: Date, Required: true

After saving this template, I clicked on "Create Move from Template" from "Entries" menu. It should a form, and I selected the template "Bank Payment Move Template" and a "Period". I clicked next and on the next screen I saw the above mentioned fields 1) and 2). I entered the values for these fields and clicked "Create" button.

Then I clicked on "Account Moves" from "Entries" menu. I found the move created in "Draft" state. I was expecting that the two fields I filled while creating this move would be available here. But, they are not here. They are not found in the Journal entry for this move. My question is, which module or report will display those fields saved with the move.

As I said the value entered in the wizard are not saved anywhere except
on the move at the place where you have used them.
As far as I see, you do not use the two fields to construct the move.
For example, the 'cheque_date' could be used as 'date', the
'cheque_number' as 'description'.


Side note, I think you should use the statement module for bank
statement.

Dear Cedric,

Thanks. I got it now. In fact, I wanted to extend the number of fields available on account move but, using move template, we can just populate the available fields.

I think statement module is used to reconcile the bank account with company accounting books. What our finance guys want is to prepare "Bank Payment Vouchers" for making payments to suppliers through bank. And whenever such a voucher is posted, it turns out to be an "account move" where "Bank Account" is credited and "Supplier" is debited. It can be achieved by the available "account move" feature; but, I wanted to save extra information like "Cheque Number" and "Cheque Date" etc. to convert the "account move" to a full-fledged "Bank Payment Voucher".

By the way, am I thinking and planning in right direction.

This is managed by the account_payment* modules.
