Jordi,

We are doing the same thing on the stock move side: adding a "No invoice" flag, if not selected then use the output or input account, if selected then use the expense account.
I understand what you are saying about the 3-way match.  I think we will wait to see how it goes in practice, I think that most of the time the auto-reconcilation will work fine (the amount will be the same on the invoice and stock move side) and some special cases will have to be reconciled manually.  There is room also to reconcile some right away, e.g. when the invoice is created from the delivery/incoming shipment.  The same way a payment is reconciled with an invoice when using register a payment on the invoice.

Stephan.

Agreed, and in fact I can see the need for users to be able to enter 1st the supplier invoice, and after, link to the PO/stock moves as part of the 3-way match or invoice verification process. See below  the document that I prepared a while ago on this topic. Feel free to comment:
