You should use Customer Payment/Bank Deposits to enter your payments from your customers. If you have an initial suspence account, You could do a transfer from the suspence account to the Bank Account you normally use for customer payment. And then do a Customer Payment/Bank Deposit. Your bank account for customer payments is now evened out and the suspence account is zero.
But you now have access to future allocations for the customer payment. I hope you follow me.

You made a bank payment with a couple of transactions. Let us say $30 total. Result now bank -$30 (credit) and the transactions are in debit.
You made a bank deposit into the same account? Let us say $20 (debit) and you charged the loan account with $20 (credit).
The balances for these two actions are now: Your bank account should be -$10, your payment transactions $30 and your loan account -$20.
That is what I get when I try. And if I require a Trial Balance for this one day, I see my totals being correct.
If you do not get the same result, then there is something wrong with either of your bank accounts.

I am not sure I understand what you have been doing. We have no problems reported here. Can you be more specific. Exactly which transactions did you do in the bank payments and which transaction in the bank deposits. And where did your problem arise?

As long as there are no transactions on the fiscal year you can change the fiscal year. First create a dummy year 010108 - 311208. Set the company to use this year. Now delete the year 010109 - 311209 and create your own year. Set the company to use this one. You may need to create a shorter year from jan to sep first  if FA complains. This may also be deleted later.
This is only the first time this is a little tricky. The reason for this is that we must keep a correct continuation of fiscal year dates.

As default the groups are numbered from 1-12. And Classes default from 1-4

Remember that the Balance Sheet/Profit and Loss Statement and Monthly Break down are ordered by class/group/account

Let us start with the groups. For now let the old groups be there. Enter your groups and start f.i. with number 20. Enter all the groups you want in right order. Make a gap between them of 5. Then you can easily insert new groups if you need one.
Now go into the GL Accounts and enter your new groups on each account one by one.
It is now time for you to delete the old groups 1-12.

If you want to rearrange the classes. Start by entering the classes at number 10 and again make a gap of 5.
Go back to the GL Account Groups and select your new classes on each group.
And finally you can delete your old classes.

That's it.

Something went wrong during installation. But you can fix the password the following way.
Use phpMyAdmin to enter your database. Find the 0_users table and select the admin account for editing. Paste the following into the password field:

5f4dcc3b5aa765d61d8327deb882cf99

This is a md5'ed version of the password: password. You can change this inside FA later.

Another solution would be to move the COS account into the same group as the Sales account, and maybe rename the group to Gross Profit.
You can try to se if this suits you.

/Joe

If you want to present the GP for your sales, consider using the COS group as sub-group of the Main Sales group. And select the Sales class for this COS group. This would probably be the best way of solving this.  The other sales group could have their own stand alone group(s).
This is easy to switch forth and back if it doesn't fit. And no harm is done to the system.

Various legislations require to see the sequence. This is the reason for showing them with a zero amount.

/Joe

Hello, If you want your Profit & Loss Statement to show the Gross profit, before showing other income, you will have to re-arrange your account classes/groups(types). When running the PL statement the sequense is ordered by class and group (type).
Maybe you should make a backup before experimenting. Or try the Training Co. first.

By entering the Setup tab (as admin). Void a transaction. Select Sales Invoice and the internal number (look first in the Customer Transactions for this).

You will have to loborate with the current row and column setting in header2.inc. Make a backup of the file before 'playing'.

Set the variable, $go_debug, to 1 in the file config.php. That will tell you about the errors.

/Joe

No, FA is an integrated system that get the transactions automatically from Sales / purchase etc.
In Journal Entries it is not possible.

But there may be a chance in the newly module, Import Journal Entries by Tom. I haven't seen it yet.

The only thing that has been changed is that the currency presentation when paying in a foreign currency but not in the customers/suppliers currency. This has been readonly.
I remember these errors a long time ago, but haven't heard of these problems lately. The exchange rates are stored on the records without any roundings, so it should be presented correctly. Maybe there still are some minor rounding errors, but I haven't heard about that until now.

/Joe

By a texteditor, you can rename the company-names in the dropdown box. You can do that by editing the file, config_db.php. You can use some pseudo-names for the companies here. The real names are used from the respective company database. And of course you should have different passwords for your users, so they can't login if they shouldn't.

Another approach is to have 2 installations of FA on different directories, with only 1 company on each.

Hello, you have just observed that you have to login as super admin (the admin for company 0) for having access to the create/update companies. The Training Co. has number 0, so you can not delete this company.

This is fixed and committed to CVS Main trunk. File: /gl/includes/ui/gl_bank_ui.inc

Yes  you can. You can just enter your payment and when you have created your invoices, you can use the payment for allocations of the invoices.
