The functionality you're referring to is actually part of the opentaps financials module which is fully compatible with OFBiz.

Right now, purchase invoices are only credited to the configured Accounts Payable account. If you want to credit to different payables accounts... the only idea I have right now is to extend the general ledger posting routine to create another invoice item type which posts to another accounts payable account. This is fairly easy to do actually, since the ledger posting stuff is very modular. Of course, if you have any other suggestions, I'd be happy to consider them as well.

We're planning a lot for the financials module right now. You can see most of it here: http://www.opensourcestrategies.com/ofbiz/ ofbiz_development_roadmap.php

Hello everybody,

Some friends and I want to implement the ofbiz in some companies in Perú (Latin América). I am studying the accounting component and I have some
questions about the accounting configuration.

When the invoice is marked Ready, the following entries are posted:

Dr. Uninvoiced Item Receipts (A)
Dr. Purchase Price Variance (Expense account), if any (B)
Cr. Accounts Payable (C)

I can get (A) and (B) of four ways (InvoiceItemType,
InvoiceItemTypeGlAccount, GlAccountTypeDefault, ProductGlAccount). But I
only can get (C) of one way (GlAccountTypeDefault).

So, if I have in GlAccountTypeDefault somethings like this:

glAccountTypeId = ACCOUNTS_PAYABLE
organizationPartyId = Company
glAccountId = 211000 (Account payable - merchandise)

When the invoice is marked ready (C) is always going to be equals to 211000. What can I do if in some cases I want (C) to be equals to 211000 (Account
payable - merchandise) and anothers cases 212000 (Account payable -
operating)? I also want to know what new features are coming out to
accounting component?.

Thanks in advance,


David Zelaya Herrera
