Hi Robert, Personally I still focuse on 1.3 line, but instead of Apache, I use nginx + fcgiwrap to run lsmb. Beside of this, I had to tweak my latex environment to be able to print utf-8 chars in PDF (the info available on the ledgersmb.org, thanks to other contributors). My setup based on Debian Wheezy and it is an openvz container. Depends on your environment, I can recommend the following to you: - use a virtual machine or container (openvz/lxc) to bring up an environment for lsmb - as this is a server, not a desktop, you should stuck with debian wheezy - if you prefer apache, just install ledgersmb via the package manager - it will install every dependencies you need. You can upgrade the ledgersmb manually or tweak your settings (remove ledgersmb itself and modify your configs to your needs). - Optionally you can install nginx and fcgiwrap together - apt-get install nginx fcgiwrap , that's all. You can find a sample config a short README in the latest svn snapshot in the 1.3 line, check the contrib directory. I hope this helps you.

[Ledger-smb-devel] Looking at putting together an add-on for Washington State's sales tax
Hi everyone; I know we still have some users in Washington State. I would like to modularize this so that other location-based tax systems could work as well. My thinking is to put together a class which handles locations (and delivery vs non-delivery handling) and then inherit from that something that would look up the tax code and rate for a jurisdiction. This leads to a couple of important questions: 1. How do we want to address delivered vs nondelivered? A default in defaults? Just use the presence of a ship-to address (my preference)? 2.

[Ledger-smb-devel] Managing exchange rates - in 1.3 and up
Hi, I found that, if I use more than one currencies, I can create offers/orders/invoices etc. in foreign currency when my customer/vendor has an account with that currency. In this case I am able to set an exchange rate for a specific day. The simplest rule in here (Hungary) to use the MNB's daily exchange rate (MNB is similar to FED or other central bank, which controls the country policy or whatever). As I do businessess in worldwide (vendors, customers sometimes in the EU and outside of EU), sometimes it happens, wrong exchange rate entered and needs to adjust it. Typical is, copy the value from somewhere else by Ctrl+C - Ctrl+V and the value format is wrong: like 221,38 become 22138 when it saved. It can happen and will happen. An other example, in the same day I issue an invoice for USD and I entered the MNB's exchange rate, but I also receive for example some USD into my bank account, but the bank converts it in his exchange rate which different than MNB. So, in SL (and the Hungarian modificaton of SL) it is possible to: list exchange rates for a specific day (not comfortable, limited functionality) keep track of two independent exchange rate, one is like for MNB, the other is for bank's exchange rate (this is also limited to 2) After all, my questions: is that possible to get a list of actual exchange rates? date from-to, currency could be ok for first it would be nice to be able to manage these kind of issues when accidentaly wrong exchange rate entered - in this case all related transaction should be recalculated, fixed somehow in the books, but keep it somehow in the history of course I did not check this specifically, but how can we manage that case, when some has more than one bank accounts and some of them are in different currency and wants to keep tracking that in USD/EUR/whatever? Regarding filling up automatically the exchange rate is possible with direct sql manipulation, using a script, for example every morning or whatever. So, what is your experience/needs with exchange rates? István -- CenturyLink Cloud: The Leader in Enterprise Cloud Services.

One consideration is whether shipping/handling is taxable or not... In the NL (and other EU countries), we have two rates: one for primary living needs (6% taxed; food, drinks, etc.) and 20% for the rest. However, we also have services which are tax exempt (banking, education to children). This is all within the NL. If we start crossing EU boundaries, things start to be more complex: many services are taxable in the country of the customer, meaning that they are neither tax exempt no taxed with the vendor (they are what's called subject to self-billing). However, much of what's required to service this, seems to be supported by the simple tax module. -- Bye, Erik. http://efficito.com -- Hosted accounting and ERP. Robust and Flexible.

[Ledger-smb-devel] PNL report grouped by week/month/quarter/year
Hi,
I really, really needed a report that gave me a month-by-month cash flow
(profit and loss) summary for the past two years. And given that I can
do it much quicker in PHP and have a Drupal instance set up that already
talks to my LSMB database, I implemented it there.
The core SQL I took out of pnl__income_statement_cash , stripping out
the business unit and year-end options. Mainly just added a field
populated with date_trunc. I'm sure this could be added back to the
stored function with a new parameter.
In any case, here's the code I wrote. Not pretty, but got the job done
for me pretty quickly... Would be great to get something like this in LSMB.
I would think the first thing would be to modify
pnl__income_statement_cash and pnl__income_statement_accrual with one
more parameter, to specify a grouping period. Maybe some other reports,
too...

Re: [Ledger-smb-devel] Managing exchange rates - in 1.3 and up

So, what is your experience/needs with exchange rates? This actually only begins to address the issues with foreign exchange rates. We are nominally multi-currency, but currently require a significant amount of manual work to keep things going. Another issue you did not address is the effect on the balance sheet of foreign exchange fluctuations and foreign currency instruments. For example, if you have a USD bank account, you need to be able to include some accounting for the fx changes. This isn't as simple as gain or loss and we need to handle it better. it can be done manually but it requires a certain amount of work, work we hope to eliminate in the future. With the above answers (mostly involving manual adjustments), I would like to share my proposal going forward. None of this will get done before 1.5. But it is a priority for me there. 1. Have nominal and actual foreign exchange rates. Invoices I think should always use nominal unless they are prepaid. This would allow certain transactions to have separate exchange rates. We would enforce a constraint that exchange rates fall within x% of nominal (set under configuration). 2. Have a UI for setting and correcting nominal exchange rates (since all transactions would have actual ones). 3. As a priority further down the list I would like to address multi-currency handling of assets so that these can be more easily reported to the balance sheet properly. 2. -- Best Wishes, Chris Travers Efficito: Hosted Accounting and ERP.

Requiring network access to a resource you don't control in an environment where you need to move people through the line fast is a recipe for trouble (do you want your cash register to be effectively down because your internet connection is slow or down). A shipping system really needs to be separate if it is going to depend on such a web service. * Transaction done using POS: use store address * Use ship-to address if exists * Use billing address if exists * Use store address ... perhaps we have a Ship-to that can be the store address? ... as I look at the sales invoice, I'm not seeing an option to select a shipping address. Shouldn't it be possible to have multiple shipping addresses associated with a customer? Click ship to and select or enter a new one. Adding a dropdown would not be hard.

One consideration is whether shipping/handling is taxable or not... Hmmm Reading SSUTA it looks like at least two rates are allowed for each jurisdiction (food/drugs and everything else). But there are also lots of other unknowns. For example, states may define what constitutes taxable shipping and handling, or whether clothing is taxable based on how much it costs (a state-set threshold), or whether insulin is taxed under food and drugs or prescriptions (even if it requires a prescription). So one huge issue is that there are products which may clearly cross categories when crossing states. I don't know how to handle that. But that's just my cursory reading through the 200 pages of regulation. The rounding rules, we can handle. It looks like we can round the tax per item or per invoice. I would recommend per item. But that affects the display too. Best Wishes, Chris Travers Cheers, John Locke On 01/09/2014 02:55 AM, Chris Travers wrote: Hi everyone; I know we still have some users in Washington State.
