Analytic Account Code sequence not working

Hello ,

I have checked your issue. I could not a found the account code as a sequence field in account.analytic.account object.
Account code is a char field in account.analytic.account object so it is not generating automatically.

So would you please elaborate with more information or provide the screen-shot where you faced the problem.

Thanks.

I think that is the issue really, it should be a sequence not a char field (I think). There is a sequence counter set up for it, starting at 2708 for some reason, but it isn't a sequence field. Analytic accounts get set up automatically when you create a project and they end up unnumbered which isn't ideal.

Hello,

Can not consider this issue as a generalize way like accounting terms any one can change or assign code filed by them-shelf.
We can consider same issue like general account code.

So I am closing this issue.

Thanks.

Can someone explain to me when and why this functionality was removed since V4? If it was removed intentionally, this is not a bug. If it disappeared by accident, this is a bug. I cannot find anything about it in the release notes.

In V4, if you add an analytic account manually as described in this bug, Account Code gets a value and the value of the sequence in Administration > Configuration > Sequences > Analytic account sequence is increased accordingly.

In in V4, if you create an analytic account hierarchy, the account code reflects this automatically: You get account codes like
View account: Description: client X, code: 2708
View account: Description: client X main actvity Y, 2708 - 001
Normal account:Description: client X, main activity Y, sub activity Z, 2708 - 001 - 001

The codes are extremely valuable when searching and compiling reports from time sheet lines, generating subtotals per subactivity etc.

Manually generating them is error prone.

I think I found the code that was removed. Module project (project.py), class account_analytic_account, in V4:

class account_analytic_account(osv.osv):
        _name = 'account.analytic.account'
        _description = "Analytic Accounts"
<snip>
        def create(self, cr, uid, vals, context=None):
                parent_id = vals.get('parent_id', 0)
                if ('code' not in vals or not vals['code']) and not parent_id:
                        vals['code'] = self.pool.get('ir.sequence').get(cr, uid, 'account.analytic.account')
                return super(account_analytic_account, self).create(cr, uid, vals, context=context)

Same method in V6:

    def create(self, cr, uid, vals, context=None):
        if context is None:
            context = {}
        if vals.get('child_ids', False) and context.get('analytic_project_copy', False):
            vals['child_ids'] = []
        return super(account_analytic_account, self).create(cr, uid, vals, context=context)

If this is not considered a bug, I might create a module to reintroduce this functionality.
