Hello,
i tried the fix but it Doesn't seem to be working. "tried on both php 5.6 and 5.4"
also tried using FA 2.3.25 and 2.4,, the result remains the same.

Hello,,
i have tried again.. this time with fresh 2.4 "2/5/2017 build" installed on my localhost

using the same steps..
and this time with the default English language and CoA..
the result is exactly the same..

i bought a product for 550..
paid cash, so nothing was left to allocate..
then bought a product for  25,000.00
i paid 15,000.00

so 10,000.00 was left to allocate.

the allocated amount was once again Combined
so 10000 + 10000 + 550 + 550 = 21,100.00

The bug was discussed Here
https://frontaccounting.com/punbb/viewtopic.php?id=651
by @infotechaccountant but it wasn't solved.

Hello,,
i had this problem where i was not able to generate reports in excel format on my server..
so tried with my local installation and it worked just fine.

i searched the forum and wiki and nothing really helped.

so i thought you might need to add this to the wiki as a server requirement for people using Frontaccounting with rtl languages or utf16, utf8 CoA.

To get Excel report to generate with no problem, you'll need to install IconV module for your php Version.
try to install it using this command:

yum install glibc-common

or you can use Easyapache.

Regards.

Could it be a mistake in the Arabic CoA ??

Which version of FA are you using on what versions of PHP/MySQL and what platform?
What menu navigation steps did you use to achieve your output?

Whether Bank Payment or Customer Payment / Allocation was used?

Attached you output for forum self-sufficiency.

The Training Company (Demo Data)'s Customer Balance Report 101 is what you should have unless you customised your report and/or are using an older version of FA.


Thanks for your reply..
php version is 5.6.35
Mysql version is 5.1.73

i am using Fronaccounting 2.3.25

the steps to reproduce this output ..
1- Creating a Direct Invoice from the Sales page.
2- Payment due within 10 days or Cash only "Same Result"
3- Place Invoice
4- Entry customer payment for this invoice
5- i allocate the paid amount, tried with petty cash and bank account.
6- going back to the sales page.
7- Customer and Sales Reports.
8- Generating customer balances with both Show Balance on and off.


Kind Regards.

Hello...
I don't know if its a bug, if not..Please help me understand it..

when someone buy one of our products for lets say 1000$
and he pay only 200$.

why the allocated amount would be doubled so it shows the total of allocated 400 instead of 200.

its been 24 hours since this bug happened..
so here is the fix for anyone who might face the same problem where the permission would change suddenly.

Add this code to the custom rules of Engintron/NginX

if ($SITE_URI ~* "http://yourwebsite.com") {
    set $CACHE_BYPASS_FOR_DYNAMIC 1; # Disables micro-caching
    set $CACHE_BYPASS_FOR_STATIC 1; # Disables static file caching
}

Hello,,
i have a Frontaccounting installed for a company which has about 10 users who are actively using Fronaccounting..
and each one with a special access level, most of them with salesman permission.

Sometimes and for some reason the user who has a salesman permission would be able to perform tasks that are only allowed for the super admin.

i don't know if this got anything to do with our new server that is running php 7 and CentOS 7.3

We also have Engintron for cPanel/WHM which integrates Nginx web server as a "reverse caching proxy" in front of Apache in cPanel.

i read that it caches & serve static assets like CSS, JavaScript, images etc. as well as dynamic HTML with a 1 second micro-cache.

anyone got a fix or heard about this problem before ??

Kind Regards.

The FrontReport class property $companyLogoEnable needs to be enabled. It is false by default in it's class method Info().

In most if not all reporting/repXXX.php files there will be a line like:

$rep->Info($params, $cols, $headers, $aligns);

Just change it to:

$rep->Info($params, $cols, $headers, $aligns, , ,  true);

The actual prototype for it is:

function Info($params, $cols, $headers, $aligns,
        $cols2 = null, $headers2 = null, $aligns2 = null,
        $companylogoenable = false, $footerenable = false, $footertext = '')

Thanks for your support..
i tried it.. 
so i enabled $companyLogoEnable in the pdf_report.inc line 254 ====>     $companylogoenable = true, $footerenable = true, $footertext = '')

i then used the find and replace to replace this code
$rep->Info($params, $cols, $headers, $aligns);
to this
$rep->Info($params, $cols, $headers, $aligns, , ,  true);

but the reports stopped generating...
have i done something wrong ??
"i am using Version 2.3.25"
Kind Regards.

Actually FA 2.4RC1 is already used in production by quite a few users. You will ofcourse need to be aware that database changes will possibly devolve in time for this branch though upgrade paths will exist for standard installs (but not guaranteed for the extensions).

The latest code for this branch is available here.

Thanks mate.

Congratulations ..
how long do you think it'd take before FA 2.4 is ready to be used on production servers ?
and what is next ?

Hi,
Seems to be working perfectly .. here is a screenshot.

i believe it'd be better if we can translate it so the letter would be one of the letters within the same word it self and in the used language.

Regards.

How do i do it ??
in the Arabic PO file the "&Banking and General Ledger" is translated without the "&"
when i add the missing "&" no accesskey is activated and the "&" character appears in the Banking and General Ledger tab.
it just works if i type it in english.

I mean the accesskey that is used to brows through the pages using the keyboard.. as when clicking alt + b you get to the bank and general ledger page.
This wotks when switching back to english but in the arabic it just doesnt seem to be working.

Hello,
i have been working on Frontaccounting in the default English language, however, after changing it to the arabic language the access key has just disappeared.
how do i use access key for a language other than English ?

After you are done, please provide feedback as to how we can improve the information in the wiki (maybe a new page is needed) to help others in future.

I'll gladly do it..
but if you want my honest opinion ...
the way that the opening balance should be inserted is the same as in Zoho Books.
where you get a separated view called "Opening Balance" and you just enter the amount either debit or credit .. there is no better and easier way to do it than this..

wish you could do it in FA.

Please check this image.

Thanks a lot... apmuthu
Now i got it. 

Taking the trial balance from the old systems seems to be the best way to go along with profit and loss statement.


Thanks again .

Btw.. i been working on a new theme for FA .. and i believe there should be 2 style sheets.. the default "left to right" and another one for the rtl like Arabic.

our accounting year starts on Jan, 1st, and ends on Dec, 31th.
We are using the Arabic/Egypt 8 digits CoA. on a Linux (CentOS) VPS.

----

So if i understand what you are saying.. i should use the year 2014 as my default year in the company setup .. then add all the balance entries before i close 2014 and use the 2015 year in the company fiscal year ?

if that is correct ...
please just let me know how a journal entry should look when inserting the balance for the bank account.

i know this could sound like a stupid question for you.. but many people here cant just figure it .

and yes.. FA is just awesome and user-friendly .. i been using a lot of accounting systems including peachtree, Sage 50 and Onion .. so far i find FA to be the best , it just needs a facelift and it'll most likely rule the accounting software world.
