Yes I think you are right. Please do not try this on serious data. Make a dummy company before you try this out.

It's much more fun, when you can discuss your problems with others...

We don't have documentation on that. If anybody out there has related material, please share it with us.

Generally speaking, you have to update the table gl_trans (possible with a leading prefix like 0_). But you have to ensure that the dates are inside the fiscal year, that the account exist in chart_master table, that you understand the journal type no's. Look in the database with a tool to see the types and finally you should download the modules Import Items and Import Customers to get an idea of how to write the module.
Or if this seems too difficult, you could try to get another person to write this. Use the specific forum for this.

Upload your JPG company logo to /themes/default/images/.
It should be about the same height as the logo_frontaccounting.jpg.
Go to Company Setup and change the logo to your own logo. Voila!

Check your reference value in the Jornal Entry and go to Setup, Forms setup.
Look up the refence values for Journal Entries. If this is non numeric you must keep track of the next number yourself. If it is numeric, you should increase the number. This should help you.

Why do you need so many characters for account ID's. It is just vaste of space. The most I have seen around is 10 characters, and I believe even this is too much.
Not all tables need transactions so it is just overhead to use InnoDB for them.
/Joe
Just select a balance sheet or profit & loss statement, and filter by the dimension. It is just that simple! You can take the profit & loss statement over several fiscal years. Just select it.

Hello,
You must first create the kit as an item and select product type - manufactured.
Now you can go to BOM and select which items should be included in the newly created kit.
Joe
Done
No we don't have a scheme for FrontAccounting. You should try to follow the source.
You may very well help us with such a scheme

Hello,
This report is under construction. The dimension details is also under further development. We need some more info on the dimensions.
/Joe
This is quite simple. You create your projects in the Dimension tab. Every time you enter a journal entry line for the company you decide if this should belong to a project (dimension). All journal entries belongs to the company but you could define if the lines should be associated with a project (dimension).
This way you can filter the dimensions in most reports belonging to the General Ledger.
Please look elsewhere for a definition of the Dimensions.
/Joe
PS. You can also associate a customer, supplier and/or an item with a Dimension.
It should work allright, but there are probably others out there that can fill me in.
Joe
Thanks Jan, this is really appreciative.
Kind regards
Joe
You have put this topic in the Setup forum also. Look at the reply there.
Janusz, lets take these discussions in the Mailing List. I've created a list and it will be available within 24 hours.
There is always a reason why things are implemented in a specific way. All the reports are taken care of in a 2 click away report centre, where your last document is default for printing.
The form_items table is a left over from the former project, where they used a non published java based report generator. We are not using it at present, and could possible eliminate it in the future.
/Joe
Why not install the module under the Dimension tab. A dimension can be whatever you define it to be like project, cost centre, inventory, department, section etc.
If you like some extended operations you could create your project module under the Dimension tab and it will show up down, right.
/Joe
Thanks for your contribution. It warms our hearts. Did you see the oppurtunity to select jalali or islamic calenders as well. See in config.php. I don't know if you are using it, but they are there for your pleasure.
We also need some better fonts for the PDF presentations. There are some links around the website about it (Download Language page and some Feeds pages). The Farsi font we have tried is not the best one. There are some problems with it. If you have the time and interest you could probably dig into this a bit to get optimal solutions.
/Joe
But this is the way of balancing the fiscal year. The newly created account 'Year Profit/loss' will show you the profit (debit) or loss (credit). And by making this final transaction you are balancing the accounts and the 'Retained earnings' is credited (the equity has increased if profit). There are often many more transactions to do before you do this last one. Depreciations, allocation to funds etc. You should talk to an accountant about this, because it is easier to let one explain it for you, and it might vary a bit from country to country, but this is the basics.
/Joe
Hello again,
Now it popped into my mind what the Retained Earning Clearing Account is about. It is the account for accumulating the profits during the fiscal years.
To your last question you should create an account, probably the last one in your cost group and call this account for something like 'Year Profit Clearing'.
The last transaction of the fiscal year will then be a debit to this account for your profit and credit to the Retained Earning Clearing Account.
If there is no profit, but loss, you should use credit and debit instead.
You don't have to this before creating a new fiscal year and start entering on the new year. You can do this later on when your transactions of the previous year has finished. As soon as you have done it, you should close the previous year, to avoid entrance on this year by mistake.
This is the normal way of doing it. There might be slightly different methods in various countries. In that case you should ask an accountant.
/Joe
Hello,
Me neither, it was implemented when we took over the earlier project. It is probably for future releases. I will deep into it and be back if I come up with something.
Joe.
The dot was mistakenly included. Here is the link again

Well, your are partly right. But as it is rare that these messages appear, we didn't consider this as a major problem. It is quite normal that SQL messages in other applications are in Engligh, won't you agree?
/Joe
Fixed in the CVS repository at Sourceforge. Thanks janusz.
/Joe
This was probably not the best font we found. On this site (links section and feeds section) there are links and info about where to get free fonts. We didn't have time to investigate this fully, but we have encouraged people to dig further and send the material to us. Then we can have the packages put on our Download Languages page.
Anyhow, your contribution is good, as you say it might be easier for those having troubles with the encodings.
/Joe
Hello again janusz,
I'm not sure if I understand your answer.
When you choose the backup/restore in the setup tab, only the current company is backed up. If this company has a table prefix of 0_, the backup file will show up as: dbname_0_Ymd_Hi.sql, where dbname is the name of the database, _0 is the table prefix. It is important that you select the correct sql file with the correct table prefix when you later restore this file on the company.
If there is no table prefix the backup file will show: dbname_Ymd_Hi.sql. In this case you would chose the correct dbname when restoring.
String replacing a 0_ with 0_ will result in 0_
String replacing a 0_ with an empty string will result in an empty string (no table prefix).
The only cases that the str_replace line will be executed are when you replace a 0_ with 0_. (backup/restore), and when creating a new company. It will either replace the 0_ with the selected table prefix or an empty string if no prefixes.
So I really see no problem here if you take these precautions when restoring the databases.
