Re: Question about Banking and General ledger- Payments, and Deposits (6 replies, posted in Banking and General Ledger)
Strange, it should be visible when using Bank Payments/Deposits. Only the bank accounts are removed here. Are you sure it has not been marked inactive in GL accounts?
I cannot reproduce this so I don't know what to suggest.
Maybe someone can help us among the community.

Re: More an accounting question about buying something with a third party (1 replies, posted in Banking and General Ledger)
If you use FA, you normally only have bank accounts for paying a supplier. So you would have to select the bank account, that are going to refund Doris. And that should be done the same day. After the booking Doris get her refund from the Bank Account directly without further booking in FA. Remember to save the paper work.

Re: Controlling Inventory using FIFO & LIFO (2 replies, posted in Items and Inventory)
FrontAccounting uses the average price of the items when delivering. Not FIFO or LIFO. The average price is recalculated everytime new items are received into stock.

Re: TCPDF EROR (1 replies, posted in Report Bugs here)
It seems that you have set a logo in Setup, Company Setup, that is called Copy of 4x3_top copy.jpg. TCPDF can't find this. Maybe because of the spaces inside the name.
If you create a new logo in Company Setup, please remove the existing one first and then upload the correct one.

Re: Groupings or hierarchy of services (items) (8 replies, posted in Wish List)
Hello chaitanya,
Frankly speaken, I am not convinced either. The problem is that the purchase has not gone into stock as a service item, but gone directly to COGS from supplier invoice.
The manufacturing is some kind of a cake upon cake development during the years. We really need to redesign it to get it more professional. I hope that we can make some kind of developers talk regarding this.
I guess that most of it works, with some major changes.
Regarding the existing usage of service of bom will only work with additional overhead/labour cost entry.
However, you could also solve it by letting the service item be a purchasable item. Instead of using the existing stock gl (inventory) account you could use another account in the GL for this. You could do me a favor testing how this would work.
Best regards

The overhead cost and labour cost can be used in these cases where you have either purchase cost or other costs.

Yes, a very good idea, Alvin. This will go to next major upgrade 2.4. Unfortunately the 2.3 database is locked by now.

Re: Taxes and Supplier invoices (7 replies, posted in Accounts Payable)
If you are using a supplier with tax, you should put the correct tax group on this supplier. Look eventually in the FrontAccounting Wiki regarding tax, .
For items there are no problems then. The purchase prices are ex. tax. The tax is calculated as you enter the items. And when you save the invoice the tax GL line(s) are done automatically.
If you are using the GL part of the supplier invoice, you will have to enter the tax manually. But I would suggest creating some Quick Entries for this. Then it is very handy to just select a quick entry and the lines are created automatically for you. Look in the FrontAccounting Wiki regarding this too.

Re: repgen, pdf report blank (3 replies, posted in Modules Add-on's)
Alvin, it is a long since I have worked with this repgen, so I have almost forgotten how it works.
Maybe something is wrong in designing your report. Try to look in the manual.html file to see if something is missing.
Or maybe other out there can help us with this, please.

Re: My COGS is doubled. Please help (6 replies, posted in Banking and General Ledger)
Hello again,
It seems that you have encountered a bug in 2.2.11 and 2.3 RC1.
We are not maintaining 2.2.11 anymore, but you can fix this bug in file /sales/includes/db/sales_delivery_db.inc line 93:
if ($delivery_line->standard_cost != 0) {
to
if (is_inventory_item($delivery_line->stock_id) && $delivery_line->standard_cost != 0) {
This will prevent future problems.
The operations already done, you can counter-book the bookings from the delivery note in Journal Entry. Remember to use the same date.
Thanks for finding this bug, and good luck.

Re: How could it be done with sales without inventory? (8 replies, posted in Accounts Receivable)
No, you will have to register the Item before sales. However you can sell it without buying. But then you will have to mark 'Allow negative Stock' in Company Setup before.
We do not recommend using it, but sometimes it is necessary to get started.

Re: My COGS is doubled. Please help (6 replies, posted in Banking and General Ledger)
There must be some setup problems somewhere in the chart of accounts you use. Which chart of account did you use when creating a new company?
Check that all related Inventory and COGS accounts are setup correctly in System and GL Setup, Supplier, Item Categories, Items, Branch accounts.
According to your information you have created a correct Service Item. But somewhere there is a mismatch in COGS account setting.

Re: My COGS is doubled. Please help (6 replies, posted in Banking and General Ledger)
There seems to be some wrong setup. When you call it a service item, are you sure you didn't set it up as Item Category 'Service' and not the Item Type as 'Service'?
If this is setup correctly as a Service Item Type there will be no GL transactions on delivery.

Re: Recurrent invoices uses customer pricelist instead of template prices (10 replies, posted in Report Bugs here)
We have to take into consideration the currency, if used.
We are still considering. If this is going to be an option, we need another field in the recurrent invoice, and the database for 2.3 is locked, so this will first be implemented in 2.4 if we do so.
In the meantime, you can do what Gerhard suggest.
