Accounting difference: POS and Ordermgr (COGS)

[Iain Fogg <ia...@westnet.com.au>]

Si (and probably others),

If I raise a sales order in the order manager, the COST OF GOODS SOLD 
account is debited, but if I sell the same item through POS there is no 
such transaction. Is this a bug, a feature, or is it supposed to work 
that way for a reason I can't fathom ;-)

Cheers, Iain

Hmm . . .

Not sure, can you post in the logs when an order is created in POS  
versus how it is shipped in order manager?  It's probably that the  
POS store doesn't have a Shipment/ItemIssuance concept.  Sorry, I  
don't really know how the POS application works, but the cogs/ 
inventory transactions are posted based on itemissuance.  You should  
download the opentaps manual from sourceforge and take a look at the  
one for financials inventory accounting.
