ACTUAL BEHAVIOR
---------------

The problem is that the Liability account defaulted on the “Payment request” is the liability account defined in Financial Options and cannot be modified as the Invoice is created in Validated status.
 
This account is “a Third Party Controled” account.
 
That means, as the party is not identified on the invoice Header (Supplier Number is Null), when Create Accounting is run, the system fails with the message "The account code combination xxx for line x is a control account
