Hi there,

I need to rebuild my journal from a previous backup to the current date. I am doing this by reposting from bank statements and written input data.

Due to timing of the transactions, I run into problems with the cash accounts in FA attempting to go negative. This, naturally, is trapped, since in the real world a cash account shouldnt go negative.

However, trying to resolve the timing differences between 15 assorted bank accounts is a nightmare, so I want to enable FA to let the cash accounts go negative. Is there a module  I can alter to disable this trap?

Regards

Brian

Hi there,

Is it possible to extract the COA from an existing database to use in making a new database?

Or, can transactions be cleared to leave an empty database with the same COA?

Thanks in advance

Brian

ok, well I have located the file that is different between RC2 and RC3 which causes my problem.

its includes/ui/ui_lists.inc (using the file from RC2 corrects the behaviour)

since the Changelog says this file was modified to improve SQLI resistance, would I be correct in assuming there may be a difference between your setup and my setup in terms of the MySQL config?

I have to say I am not a php programmer so I am a bit lost looking at that code.

Perhaps you could tell me which Linux distribution you use and/or we could compare MySQL config

I dont know if this is the right track to take but am preparde to explore it further with a little help from you if possible.

Regards

Brian

well, interestingly, I have done clean installs each of 2.3RC, 2.3RC1, 2.3RC2, 2.3RC3 and the 2.3.0 release and 2.3.0a releases.

No changes have been made to my system (Fedora 14) for any of the tested installations. The behaviour I have explained occurs only in 2.3RC3 and later. The earlier RC releases work fine. So, something must have changed in Frontaccounting 2.3RC3 thats leading to this behaviour.

I have tried a different browser, (Firefox, Epiphany, Internet Explorer). So, seems to me the browser is not the issue since the behaviour is identical.

That only leaves the php setup and the web server.

FA System Diagnostics reports no setup errors.

So I guess my question is what has changed between RC2 and RC3 that requires me to alter some other setting.

Cheers

Brian

hi,

I am trying to add and/or modify accounts. When an account is selected, the details are not retrieved. When an account is added, one addition works, but when selecting new account after that I cant add another account.

This worked in previous version, but I think it hasn't worked in Beta 3 either.

Version 2.3.0 Build 09.12.2010

Cheers

Brian

PS .. This worked ok up to RC2

If i set a budget for income accounts, the P/L report displays the budget for the income items as a negative.

This cant be right.

Hi Joe,

Where would I look for that?

If I open a terminal, and use the date command, the time is reported correctly.

Where is FA getting the time from?

Hi, I just upgraded from 2.1.6 to 2.2 Beta.

All looks ok, except I notice that Journal Enquiry wont return any records. The records are there when a Report is done, but the Search returns empty.

Note that I havent entered anything into the upgraded system, I am only using the upgraded data set.

Is this a bug?

Cheers

Brian
