Hi Jan-Marc.
I have also delved into these issues and have quite a bit of knowledge
regarding them.
I work at a spanish consulting company that gives accounting services
for a big amount of customers.
As Craig states, Ledger is a pure command-line application.
It is absolutely agnostic to the concept of country-specific charts of
accounts.
You can indeed use Ledger as the base for any kind of accounting,
independent of the country.
I use Ledger for my own companies in Spain without any problems.
I come from the Python world, and know OpenERP also quite a bit.
And you are right, it can be quite overwhelming, especially for clients
using it.
Please get in touch directly if you want any help. I'll be glad to help
you out.
Regards, Stefan Tunsch

Ledger is purely command line driven. The input file is plain text and
can handle Unicode account names, payees and arbitrary currencies
(called commodities in ledger documentation. )
Multiple independent users would be driven using independent input files.
It sounds like you are looking for a web based accounting system

in that sea but that is not its focus

Hi there.
Im new to Ledger, but not to accounting. Here is our situation; we
deliver services for homecare in the Netherlands. We have build an
app that can handle all invoicing for that (RoR) and after the
whole exercise we export all invoices to openERP. But what we have
seen is that care providers still want to use their own
accounting/Ledger system and secondly that openERP is not really
user friendly.
So we are doing research on what to do next, as I have an
financial background and our company builds software (Java, js,
HTML5, etc). Now we have the Dutch accounting scheme for homecare
organisations and we know exactly how to set up the invoicing
scheme. So that should not be too hard..:-).
Just some questions:
1. Is there already a Dutch implementation?
2. Could we create multiple (user)accounts that all have their
own instance and bookkeeping? In fact invoices for different
providers (to the customer) are created from one central
point. In this central point we in fact have re-sold turnover,
and in each different account we create an invoice. If this is
done correct we can have the payment flow quite easily
afterwards..
Hopefully my explanation is long enough to understand, any help is
welcome!!
Regards, Jan-Marc
