I fully agree with Stéphane Bidoul (sbi). Supplier invoices are treated differently.
In accounting, it is crucial that for supplier invoices you enter the total amount of the invoice which has to be checked against the total of the individual lines. Compare it to the bank statement where the ending balance (entered manually) is checked against the total of all lines. As an example enter the following supplier invoice: one line with 4.75 EUR and 0% VAT second line with 460.23 EUR and 21% VAT. OpenERP calculates for the second line 96,65 EUR of VAT, which makes the invoice total equal to 561,63 EUR. However, the invoice received from the supplier stipulates 96,66 EUR as VAT, which makes the total invoice amount equal to 561.64. And here, I really don't care about which totals are calculated correctly. That is not the point. Point is I have to enter in OpenERP the exact same invoice figures as my supplier sent me. And I want the system to warn me when there is a difference. If I encode this invoice without being able to enter the expected total of the invoice (as I used to do in version 6.0), I might post the invoice with the wrong VAT and total (and I know this invoice only has two lines, but the same might happen with a dozen of invoice lines). Removing this field is NOT an improvement at all! So PLEASE give me back the check_total field! Or at least give me the choice to have this field or not.

The user filled that field first with the total amount on the invoice (taxes included). When validating the invoice, the system checked that the computed total matched the entered total. This allowed to catch data entry errors and VAT calculation errors (such as when the wrong tax code were selected). In 6.1 (and in trunk as far as I can tell), this field (hence the check) has been removed.
