Confustion regarding : The field "Account Payable" on "Party" is required

[Dr. Praveen Bhatia]

Hi,

   I get this error 

The field "Account Payable" on "Party" is required

  When party.save() is done after creating company.

However, I dont get this error before creating company. 

What is the logic behind this?

Hello. 

It is required to assign account payable and account receivable to every party created. These fields become required after some settings (do not remember which exactly) are done. Just choose receivable/payable accounts for the party out of the chart of accounts.

Once the user is in a company. But I'm wondering if it is really a good
choice to make a field required depending on the context.

In general, how does one know what is the "required" field of any Model, specially, when it also depends on the context. This is for programming in Proteus.

You have to look at the Model definition in each modules.

I'm in favor of not making the field required. I just filled:

https://bugs.tryton.org/issue6561

So please drop your comments there if you have some concern about
removing the required.

I actually have arguments agains having AR/AP as required for Party. Quite often companies might have a list of contact parties, banks of customers and suppliers and other parties, which are used for contact (not accounting) purposes only and therefore do not require receivable and payable at all.
