No, merely a catch 22 behaviour. What came first, the egg or the hen? I guess you understand 
. You will have to be loged in before the internal behaviour is setup.

Re: Foreight Exchange Gain (17 replies, posted in Banking and General Ledger)
Hello slackie,
Are you using the GL account 1210 in Journal Entries for other entries? In that case I can understand the problem.
One should never use the bank accounts in Journal Entries except for entry of Open Balances.
Be aware of the transaction date.
You can now make a test by looking at the transaction date balance in GBP in the bank account and compare to the balance in the GL account by the same date. By using the exchange rate as the transaction date you should get the correct balances in the GL account.
I have tried a while without reproducing any errors? I will continue:

Re: Foreight Exchange Gain (17 replies, posted in Banking and General Ledger)
Yes, maybe we should remove the Revaluation into a specific GL Journal to separate the operations and call it 'Revaluation of currencies'.
But I will do another test if there are problems with the revaluation.

Re: Viewing Attachments.. .how? (8 replies, posted in Accounts Payable)
Hello again,
The release of 2.3 is approaching. However you may look into the last commitment regarding this in CVS unstable trunk. The main change in a couple of extra default parameters to end_page(). And the implementation in ui_controls.inc.
I think you could change the 2.2 without problems, but we are planning on a rapid 2.3 release.

Re: Foreight Exchange Gain (17 replies, posted in Banking and General Ledger)
The balances of the currency accounts will mirror the correct balance in the underlying GL accounts.
There must be something else making these problems.
We will consider a disable flag on a per company base for release 2.3.

Re: Viewing Attachments.. .how? (8 replies, posted in Accounts Payable)
I have now been working with this and found it difficult to have this link in the inquiries themselves. It is too cluttered in some inquiries to have an extra column. It is much easier to have a link in the popup windows ('View Attachment') in front of the other (''Print' and 'Close'). This link will only be there if there is an attachment.

Re: Viewing Attachments.. .how? (8 replies, posted in Accounts Payable)
Even if there might be space problems (too many columns in some inquiries) I will see if we can put an extra column here for all inquiries.
I have put this on the Wishlist in FA Wiki. It is a candidate for 2.3.

Re: creating debtors (4 replies, posted in Accounts Receivable)
If you have many customers, you could make use of the many import modules available on the download page.
Otherwise there are links to the creation of branches from the customer form once you have saved him.
Please have a look in the FA Wiki regarding the open balances and how to enter them.

The PO file should be edited using the poEdit program to create a MO file.
If you have done that, the problem may be that the caches need to be emptied. Empty your internet browser caches.

Re: How to reverse the received items? (8 replies, posted in Accounts Payable)
You are right, you cannot void the Purchase Order Receival, due to internal complexity.
But you can make an Inventory Adjustment, Negative adjustment, for the items and set the price to 0. This will not create a GL transaction.

If you have already registered the supplier invoice, you just void thie supplier invoice before voiding the Receival (GRN).

There is an Arabic forum for FA over at http://infotechaccountants.com. Maybe there are solutions here.

If you are voiding a PO, it is not recorded in the Journal Entries yet. Look at it in the Purchasing Orders in Supplers tab.

Re: Can Dimension handle this! (5 replies, posted in Dimensions)
Ah, I see.
You should instead of dimensions, use the stock locations as filters and in Items and Inventory Reports there is a report, Inventory Sales Report. This report can be filtered by location. Here you will also see the cost.
After you get the stock from the supplier, you can make a transfer from the default location into the other locations.
Remember also, when selling, to select the right location for the deliveries.

Re: Can Dimension handle this! (5 replies, posted in Dimensions)
All transactions are going into the headoffice automatically. By setting a dimension on the transaction, it is used to filter out the profit/loss for the dimension. If you do not select dimension when taking a report you will get the profit/loss for the entire company.
You can play a little with this on the Training Co. before you use your own company.

Re: Can Dimension handle this! (5 replies, posted in Dimensions)
Yes, you just create 3 dimensions with the name of the branches. Then you can put these dimensions on the supplier and/or change when creating the supplier invoice. The same thing when creating sales invoices. Put dimension on the customer and/or sales invoice.
Then you can make GL reports filtered by dimensions.

Re: Foreight Exchange Gain (17 replies, posted in Banking and General Ledger)
Everytime a foreign currency is used, the underlying GL account is updated so it always mirrors the correct values in domestic currency. So the differences to the former exchange rate and the current exchange rate is calculated and regulated on the GL account and foreign exchange account.
