Search options (Page 162 of 201)

You have established the search fascility on the company. If you don't want this you can unmark this in company setup. Unmark 'Search Item List', 'Search Customer List' and 'Search supplier List'. After that the cusomers, Items and suppliers appear again.
If you have the search fascility established, you can get all the items by pressing a space in the item list and then a * and tab. Then you get all the items. You can also press the first characters or som other matching characters then you will only get the items that matches the search.
These search lists are more for those having a bunch of customers/items/suppliers.

The standard costing is the average purchase price over time.

The invoices are presented in decreasing order with the Customer name in the list.
Another way of easily finding the customer invoice, is in Customer Transactions. Select the Customer here, and print the invoice directly.

I guess you already have observed that an account belongs to a group (type). A group (type) belongs to a class.
Depending on how your country wants to present the balance sheets and profit and loss statements, you can build these rules with help of groups (types) and classes.

When a balance sheet is printed it is sorted on 1. class, 2. group(type) and last the account itself.
As you see the accounts are not necessarily printed out in account number order.
First the Title for the first Class is printed, Then the Title for the first Group is printed. Then the accounts within this group are printed. When a new group is coming, the totals within the old group group is printed before the title of the next group is printed.
The same thing happens when a new class is coming. The total for the old class is printed and the title of the new class is printed and so on.
By arranging the groups you can present your balance sheets and PL statements your own way.
By also using sub-groups (a group belonging to another group) you can create even more sophisticated aggregators. But this is more acvanced.

This sticky topic explains how you make a rearrangement of new groups and classes, should you need more space between the group/class id's.

Hello cenc,

We still use ECB as our stable exchange rates provider, however, we are avare of that the coverage is not good for South America, Africa and Asia, so we have implemented it so that it is possible to swap provider.
In CVS Main, a file called /gl/includes/db/gl_db_rates.inc has been updated so it is possible to use YAHOO or GOOGLE instead of ECB.
Both YAHOO and GOOGLE have almost all currency rates in the world. These changes are going to release 2.2.2, but if you want this to be available in your 2.2 you will have to download this file from the CVS repository.

And you will have to create the following locale.inc file and place it in the /lang/xx_YY folder, where xx is the language and YY is the country. F.i. en_US.

<?php

class Hooks {
    function retrieve_exrate($curr, $date)
    {
        return get_extern_rate($curr, 'YAHOO', $date);
        //return get_extern_rate($curr, 'GOOGLE', $date);
    }
}

?>

This will use YAHOO instead of ECB. Comment the YAHOO line and uncomment the GOOGLE line if you want to use GOOGLE instead.
We do not guarantee that the currency rates are provided correctly, but I guess this is better than nothing for countries not served by ECB.

Please, sajjad, it has been explained both here and in the setup forum. Please read it ones more. If you still don't get a habit of it, maybe you just don't need them now and you can wait until you need them. You can switch them of in company setup.

If you have a new company (no transactions) where the fiscal year is ranging from 01 jan 09 to 31 dec 09 and want it to be a fiscal year from 01 July09  to ??? you will have to first create a fiscal year 01 jan 08 to 31 dec 08 and set your company to use this year.

Delete the fiscal year 01 jan 09 to 31 12 09. Now you have to create a 'dummy' short year from 01 jan 09 to 30 jun 09. And now your correct new fiscal year from 01 july to ???.
After you set this new year on your company, you can delete the earlier unwanted fiscal years if there are no transactions here.

The reason for these operations is that there must be no gaps between the fiscal years.

We are working on a complete new report extension manager, but you will have to wait until release 2.2.2 at least for this.
In the mean-time you can copy the report rep706.php into the folder /company/X/reporting where X stands for the company number.
If there is a rep706.php (or any other report) here, FA will select this instead of the ordinary ones. Then you can experiment.
But again, wait with serious reporting until we are ready with this new extension.

I am not sure if these modules are up to date. It says that there is a new release for 2.1, but. You may try and if it doesn't work, you can uninstall it again.
You are right. In 2.2 the menu is Install/Activate Extensions. You use this for installing.

You have to manuelly take care of the using of level 1 and level 2. You may help yourself by naming them accordingly.

Often when problems sounds weird, it helps emptying the browsers internet cache. Empty everything and start up again.
And do not have 2 instances of FA running on the same computer.
