Difference between Anglo-Saxon and Continental Stock Method

[Artem Braga]

Hello. 

I wanted to ask what is the key process difference  between Anglo-Saxon and Continental Account Stock Method? There is module documentation for both modules and stock methods here: http://doc.tryton.org/4.2/

But the following things are not clear from this documentation: 

1. Does Anglo-Saxon stock method can create account moves based on supplier/customer stock shipments without invoice, while Continental  stock method can create account moves based on supplier/customer invoices without shipments? 

2. Do both stock methods use cost of goods sold account for customer sales transactions? 

3. What are other key process differences between these two stock methods?

Thank you 

Best regards

Artem

No, they both create account moves on shipments.

No, only anglo-saxon use the cost of goods sold account.

Indeed anglo-saxon is based on continental so they both keep perpetual
stock accounting.
But anglo-saxon also keep the cost of good sold account up to date on
invoice posting.

Thanks for explanation, Cedrik

So, anglo-saxon creates = debit- cost of sales and credit stock= entry when goods are sold. What entries are created by continental method upon sale of goods?
