Enhancement suggestions
by Howard Lowndes 13 Dec '23

13 Dec '23

I'd ask the developers to consider a range of enhancements to LedgerSMB. These are in no particular order of priority. 1. A system option to abandon the listing of GIFI for those countries who do not use it. It's a waste of space if not used. 2. Include in the CoA listing flags for additional items - Account Type, Contra, Reconciliation, Tax, Obsolete, Negative Balance Heading. 3. Tier the presentation of the Description field in the CoA to reflect the structure of the CoA. This could possibly be achieved by means of CSS.

Am I handling Github correctly?
by Howard Lowndes 01 Dec '23

01 Dec '23

I recently raised a bug report #7739 which was reported solved in #7744 thru #7746. I searched thru the commits and found changes in the *master/templates/lib* link as dynatable.html and dynatable.tex, I downloaded these files and diff'd them against the originals in my */opt/ledgersmb/templates/lib/ *structure. The diff's looked sensible so I overwrote the earlier files and tested for the problem. No joy :( The original problem remains. I AM NOT FAMILIAR WITH GITHUB, so am I doing it correctly, or what is the correct procedure?

Fwd: Dropping unwanted databases

---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Howard Lowndes <howard.lowndes(a)gmail.com> Date: Wed, 29 Nov 2023 at 16:06 Subject: Dropping unwanted databases To: <users(a)ledgersmb.org> In the process of setting up LedgerSMB and training users to the system I have created some, now, unwanted databases. Is there a way to drop these waifs with lamb_dbadmin or do I have to resort to postgres? -- Howard. -- When you want a computer system that works, just choose Linux; When you want a computer system that works, just, choose Microsoft. -- Howard. -- When you want a computer system that works, just choose Linux; When you want a computer system that works, just, choose Microsoft.

Possible logic bomb
by Howard Lowndes 01 Dec '23

01 Dec '23

I believe I may have discovered a logic bomb between the AR Sales Invoice and the Credit Invoice, which may also apply to the AP Vendor Invoice and Debit Invoice though I have not tested the latter. My understanding is that, because invoice cancellation is not permitted, the Credit Invoice is intended as a full reversal of a Sales Invoice in all respects. To my logic this implies that all values entered in the original Sales Invoice should be faithfully replicated in any matching Credit Invoice. In the upper portion of the Sales Invoice this may be the case (it is untested), but in the lower "Payment" portion of the Credit Invoice it appears that the monetary value original entered as a positive value in the Sales Invoice now has to be entered as a negative value in the Credit Invoice in order to be correctly applied in the accounts. I have not checked to see if the quantity field for a tracked inventory item has to be similarly reversed. All of these comments may also apply to the AP documents Vendor Invoice and Debit Invoice. If in fact the practice of the numeric reversal by the operator is intended to be the practice then I see it as illogical hence my describing it as "logic bomb" and the correct use of the reversal invoices needs to be clearly highlighted in documentation.

Fwd: Enhancement Request
by Howard Lowndes 30 Nov '23

30 Nov '23

---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Howard Lowndes <howard.lowndes(a)gmail.com> Date: Thu, 30 Nov 2023 at 07:29 Subject: Enhancement Request To: <users(a)ledgersmb.org> In *General Ledger->Chart of Accounts* display would it be possible to add columns for: Account type Contra Recon Tax Summary Account. This would ensure that all relevant fields are available in the display and the anticipated column widths would not be excessive. Some displays could be achieved by imaginative use of font colour (red for Contra??, underscore for Tax??) in the same way that bold font is used to highlight Headings.

Fwd: Default setting not locking in

---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Howard Lowndes <howard.lowndes(a)gmail.com> Date: Thu, 30 Nov 2023 at 10:25 Subject: Default setting not locking in To: LedgerSMB <users(a)ledgersmb.org> In *System->Defaults* there is the ability to adjust the paper size between US Letter and A4. Although the setting remain adjusted during a current login, it does not persist a logout but reverts to the default US letter on logging in again. Minor, but annoying...

LedgerSMB version 1.10.25 Calling *Reports->Trial Balance* in PDF format fails to render the Ending Balance (file attached). Calling in CSV presents correctly. Calling in ODS and XLS render correctly tho the former is missing date range detail on the first page.
