People,
I used LSMB briefly many years ago before my IT work evolved into having one full-time
client - and then I retired. Now I have a friend who might be interested in LSMB. I know
data can be exported as CSV but have people written their own custom export facilities for
producing custom formats for their accountants to easily import / digest? - my preference
would be to write a Ruby script to do something like this.
We are in Australia BTW so any comments re LSMB and Australian tax forms etc and
multi-currency stuff is also appreciated!
Regards,
Phil.

Given the lack of response, I think the answer is "no"... However, I'm
working on a "command-line client" application which is supposed to be able
to do something like this. The outlines are only shaping now as I'm working
on administrative commands first. However, I'm definitely open to adding
more import/export commands to the script, if there are generally useful
cases to be made.

I've included David Godfrey, who is also in Australia. He might know people
with the same or similar issues.
Hope that helps!

After LOTs of distractions / dramas, I have finally gotten back to this
topic - I have now successfully created Podman containers (suits me
better than Docker) for PostgreSQL and LedgerSMB, created my first
company and logged in.
Now if that company actually starts trading sometime - I could make use
of this setup! - and if my friend is interested in using this too, I
will help her set it up.
Thanks for the Docker image and clear instructions!
Regards,
