In the Display Setup on the Setup tab you can select another template (theme).

You can also download the new themes for release 2.0 (if you are using this version). Follow the download instructions and voila you can select them as well smile

You must create a new company. Use the en_US-new.sql script for a fresh company without test data.

Yes you are right. And you can do this easily in FA. What you are talking about is some kind of automatic codings for doing the monthly/yearly depreciations. This has been considered to implement in FA, but we want to do this the right way. There is also a need to do a cost/income periodically over several periods.
This is also one of our future plans.
These improvements will come in a future release.

The dimensions are created to work like this:
You can have GL transactions with the same account and several dimensions. You can not link one specific dimension to an account. If you put a dimension on an item, the generated sales (or purchase) GL transaction both have an account and a dimension.

1. I understand your solution, but I don't think that there is a need for this.
2. With the last ajax enabled implementation, I think Janusz has established an optimal solution. If selecting an item it assumes that you are editing. Pressing Cancel will get back to new item again. When the New Item is active in the list, you are about to enter a new item!
3. If this is an important issue, we will consider this in future releases.
4. Good idea. Will be implemented ASAP.
5. Again, I think when you are selecting the 'Show hints for new users' in the Display Setup, you get extended help. Maybe Janusz will comment on this.

Thanks for your contributions.

We will consider this. Probably with a checkbox, show voided, or so.

I understand what you mean, Alvin. Instead of listing the prices per currency, you want to print a Price Listing in a specific currency.
Well this has been fixed in the CVS repository for unstable. Please check it out.
I also see that this is relevant, as we changed into automatic calculation of none entered currency prices.

In release 1.16 you can not edit an existing Invoice. In release 2.0 you can edit certain elements in an Invoice. Look at the demos.

If the inventory has a dimension, this dimension always follows the stock entry and sales when the GL transactions are created. If a customer has a dimentsion, it will override the item dimension.

Hello,

No it is not. The transactions are stored just as it is. If you which to see an opening balance of an account, you just make an accumulate of transactions up to a certain date.
So if you are importing OB from an external system, you would do that in a date 1 prior to the fiscal year you are starting. F.i. you start the fiscal year of 01.01.2008. You make the initial balance with a balanced journal entry from 12.31.2007.
We do not have any special tables for periods or year balances. This way you are free to select your own periods by selecting your period in balance sheets and income sheets.

Thanks for your nice words.
You should follow the install instructions inside the application. We are not familiar with the specific setup for a microfinance bank. Maybe you you shall modify the chart of accounts after creating your own company. Talk to an accountant about that.
Maybe somebody in the audience have additional tips for you.

Hi alvin,
The price listing prints in all entered currencies sorted per currency.

/Joe

First you create the currencies in GL. And after that you enter some exchange rates. Now you can select one of your currencies as the default currency for the company (in Company Setup).

The query you are referring to is inside /includes/db/inventory_db.inc in function add_stock_move().

The value of $person_id = null is among other in Manufacturing, work order entry.
I can NOT reproduce an error. The value of the person_id field is 0 after execution.
I am using PHP 5.2.4 and MySQL 5.0.18.

You are right! Fixed in the CVS repository for unstable.

After you have created the 'TestCo' database, you must make sure you have a user with full previlegies for the database. If you do not have direct access to mysql, you can do this in the CPANEL for your server.
After that you are ready for creating a company in FA. Be sure to enter the exact information in the fields.
If you have several companies, it is easier to only use one database with a table prefix for each. Then you don't need to create databases for each new company.

I hope you are up and running now.

I see that you use a script, called en_USE-new.sql. Are you sure this is right? The script that is shipped with the install is en_US-new.sql.
You should try once again with the correct script. I have never heard of problems creating a new company (beside the creation of the database).

If you get this error, you must create the database by yourself. You can do that with the PHPMyAdmin tool (or CPANEL) on the server. After you have created the database, you can create a new company with the same procedure as before.

When entering GL Lines the tax has to be entered as a GL Line too.
FA has, though, been prepared for the automatic entry. Every account has a tax code field, so it would be possible to automatically enter the tax line if a tax code is here.
This is for future implementation.

Hello t2webby,

I think it would be great, if you create a module for printing cheques. You can use any of the existing modules as a model. And you can look in the /reporting folder, repXXX.php to see how to make a report. You can also look in the file /reporting/includes/reporting.inc how to initiate a report outside the report-central.

And, of course, use Janusz's suggestion to keep track of check numbers.

If this turns out to be good, we will consider incorporating the cheque printing in coming releases.

Hello Alvin,
It seems that you have the '$go_debug' flag set in the config.php file. Please check if this is so. Set it to 0 to get the reports sent to your PDF reader.

What you got is the raw code that is sent to the PDF reader. We have determined to show the raw code with the '$go_debug' set.

The RC2 installation might still have bugs, where the demo site are continuesly updated from the CVS repository at Sourceforge.net.
Shortly the RC2 will be replaced by a final release.
