Jonathan Castillo (jcs) abc6d99af7 [IMP] contributing: modify titles and headings guidelines
The previous guidelines for titles and headings included an exception to
capitalize feature names as they are written in the apps. However, this
exception seems to have confused most writers as it isn't always clear
what should be considered as a feature name or what should be considered
as a noun or noun group. This commit removes this exception to make the
writing and reviewing processes easier while retaining good titles and
improving consistency across the documentation. It also changes the
titles of the Accounting section to provide a better example to other
writers.

Purchase receipts
=================
**Purchase Receipts** are not invoices but rather confirmations of received payments, such as a
ticket or a receipt.
This feature is meant to be used when you pay directly with your company's money for an expense.
**Vendor Bills**, on the other hand, are recorded when an invoice is issued to you and that the
amount is first credited on a debt account before a later payment reconciliation.
.. note::
Expenses paid by employees can be managed with **Odoo Expenses**, an app dedicated to the
approval of such expenses and the payments management. Click :doc:`here
</applications/finance/expenses>` for more information on how to use Odoo Expenses.
Register a receipt
==================
To record a new receipt, go to :menuselection:`Accounting --> Vendors --> Receipts`, click on
*Create*, fill out the form, and click on *Post*.

========================================

post it.
To do so, click on the **Journal Items** tab, change the accounts and values according to your
needs, and click on *Post*.
