Odoo is the world's easiest all-in-one management software.
It includes hundreds of business apps:
We want to control income and expense account by default only from Product Categories. But I am not able to avoid that when you create a new product, the fields for Income account and Expense account are filled. And user must remember to delete the value. If they forget, we get postings to wrong account.

I think it's possible to use Automated Actions, but not quite in the way I originally expected.
The full details are here: Use Automated Actions to set income and expense accounts
This is the Python code
for record in records:It would be better to set these to blank, but when I try that nothing happens.
record['property_account_income_id'] = record.categ_id.property_account_income_categ_id
record['property_account_expense_id'] = record.categ_id.property_account_expense_categ_id
You described the problem correct: " As standard, Odoo leaves them blank so this should not be required." And that is my issue: I do not understand why these fields are filled by default. I think I will report it as an official issue.
Be interesting to know how to recreate it!
Hi Lars:
These fields don't have defaults defined out of the box. Someone may have defined default values for the accounts.
Activate developer mode. Go to Settings > Technical > Actions > User Defined Defaults and check if there are defaults defined for these fields.
Already checked. No default defined. And it is not possible to set a blank default. Thanks anyway.
You could use Automated Actions to set these to blank.
