Hi all,
I've been a long time lurker and an on and off user of ledger SMB (and
previously SQL-ledger).
Over the years, I have helped lots of places with IT stuff, and
occasionally help guide their software choices.
Now, one of these contacts has reached out to get help with Payroll. Their
accountant has suggested they code up some stuff in Excel, so they can keep
track. I've been urging them for years to set up a proper accounting
system, and I think now is the time to plunge in with both feet, since
teaching them how to do this in Excel (and building the supporting pieces
around that) will be as much effort as a proper Payroll piece.
I'm looking to start with some baby steps and some community advice.
The place that reached out to me is conducting business in Ontario Canada,
so if anyone has used payroll in that neck of the woods, it would be
helpful.
Mostly, though, I'm wondering what version I should be targeting. 1.3 is
the stable prod version, but in digging through docs and articles and
google searches, it seems there is a 1.4 "beta" that might have some of the
hooks in there. But the code at sourceforge looks a bit older (early 2013)
for the beta.
Right now I'm kicking tires and seeing how hard things might be to do. I'd
prefer to have this completely automagic, but having to do the calculations
outside of ledgerSMB and just enter the results isn't a show stopper at
this time, as that is the plan with Excel anyways.
Comments/discouragement/realism encouraged and accepted -- just know I'm
stubborn though. :)
Thanks,
Gerald
