Does anybody know what is the use of stock 'stock_journal_id' in incoming shipment

AFAIK it is only used for reporting purposes

It is not only for "reporting purposes"; this journal is creating accounting entries in the stock accounts! And I have no ideas about which settings that are triggering those entries. For instance - with my configuration which is certainly FAR FROM OPTIMUM - a POS transaction (a sale) is creating 6 accounting entries on stock accounts

Does any one have a precise and complete understanding of the stock journal in liaison with the specific settings of product categories?

Some scenario - from basic to more complete ones - with full explanations related to default accounting settings (warehouse, product categories etc...) would be absolutely helpful

stock_journal_id refers to a different type of journal than the accounting journal. The Stock Journal can be defaulted on the warehouse location settings.

As benos20 said, you are talking about account.journal

Hi benos20: did you found some spare time to explain the roles and relations (if any) between the 2 "stock journals". This would help me and probably a bunch of others.
