@joe: The explanation is okay but any change from FA 2.3 that warranted this in FA 2.4? Just a design decision that may fill up the ID space quickly. Is such a change of transaction number of any real benefit?

Re: Ajax Inquiry Fixes (7 replies, posted in Report Bugs here)
Thanks @joe.
There are a host of inquiry files that needs to be merged and tested as well.
Will get the diffs after testing.
In includes/ui/ui_view.inc, the newly added functions set_posts() and get_js_history() use the splat operator available in PHP 5.6+ for variable length argument lists.
Some workarounds are here.
We need to make it backwards compatible with the attached diff file.

@joe / @itronics: Do we intend to revert to FA 2.3.x functionality for retaining the same transaction number? Why was it changed in FA 2.4.x?

As a start try to change the field size and see if that satisfies the entry. Then change the font size on display/print.

Re: FA 2.4.3 Sales Quotation can not edit the header fields. (1 replies, posted in Accounts Receivable)
Use FA 2.4.3+ as it has a lot of fixes.
You need to have some items and customers before you can create a sales quotation.
Also use a Chart of Accounts that matches the en_US-new.sql for tables, fields, field types and fields orders apart from missing SysPrefs entries fixed. Checkout the latest Charts from here.

Re: How to Backup Large Files (4 replies, posted in Setup)
1. Check tables with large logs and purge them especially after changing the debug variables in the config.php.
2. Use the command line to dump the backup - mysqldump
3. Use a MySQL client like SQLyog.
4. Increase the php.ini's script timeout and max transfer size / memory limit variables
5. FA's time limit is also hardcoded at 180 seconds or so - search the wiki.

In a separate new company, make 1 sample transaction to simulate the wrong entries you mad. Study the before and after sql backups Now appropriately edit the actual company's DB with these updations, possibly having the sqls created from a spreadsheet.

Re: Migration from Sage to FrontAccounting (5 replies, posted in Setup)
Most proprietary applications help you migrate your data from other's programs into theirs but will not help in doing the reverse. In the case of FA, you have access to the raw tables that you can manipulate/extend at will and migrae in/out without reference to anyone.
Identify the Sage DB used and it's version. See if an ODBC driver exists and is interface-able. Then identify the core elements you wish to import - Customers, Suppliers, Items, Pricelists, Chart of Accounts, etc. Export such data into an FA usable format and import using the Import extensions in FA.
Doing it yourself right is cost-effective. Asking others to do it might turn out more expensive than buying Sage, etc.

If the customer paid by non-cash means, say by cheque, then it would go directly to bank but still needs to be allocated to the appropriate sales invoice(s).

Re: Strange behaviour after fresh 2.4.3 install (4 replies, posted in Report Bugs here)
Use PHP upto 7.1.x. PHP 7.2.x still has issues with FA. Make sure that the MySQL Strict Date setting is disabled to allow for zero dates and times. Otherwise revert to PHP 5.5 or less.

Re: Does anyone find it useful to edit a sales order after invoicing? (3 replies, posted in Report Bugs here)
Just to purge a whole lot of already delivered orders after invoicing - a sort of "history -c" in bash. This will make for just the retrieval and display of "Outstanding Sales Orders along with recently completed Sales Orders (so as to answer CRM questions by Call Centers). "Cancel Orders" still does not affect already delivered and invoiced sales orders. Just like "Clear the Desktop of all the Clutter". Makes searching that much more efficient at the cost of "loss of history and trackbacks".

Re: Does anyone find it useful to edit a sales order after invoicing? (3 replies, posted in Report Bugs here)
Except for the fact that if it was not fully delivered and invoiced, the balance that will not be delivered can be removed from it so that it does not confuse outstanding sales order deliverables.
