Open RamkrishnaMondal opened this issue 10 years ago • 25 comments

Can not create "Current Assets" > "Debtors" > "Individual Customer's" Ledger A/C

OR

Can not create "Current Liabilities" > "Creditors" > "Supplier's Name" Ledger A/C

What error you are getting ? Please take a screenshot.

prashants avatar Nov 21 '15 17:11 prashants

Maybe because of the single quote

prashants avatar Nov 21 '15 17:11 prashants

When creating for example MR.X (a debtor) A/C, I just can't find "Debtors" in the drop down list to add as the "Parent Group". 22

BTW, "Debtors" is already created under "current Asset" group.

You have created Debtors as ledger account. You need to create it as a group. Groups are like container and Ledgers are the items you add to containers.

prashants avatar Nov 21 '15 18:11 prashants

If I create Debtors as a ledger A/C it is not going to show under Current Assets which it should be. I think, we need sub-groups.

RamkrishnaMondal avatar Nov 21 '15 18:11 RamkrishnaMondal

Please create Debtors are group. You cant see it under current assets since its a ledger and not a group. In parent group you can only see list of groups and not ledgers.

prashants avatar Nov 21 '15 18:11 prashants

Can you create Debtors account as Group account.

prashants avatar Nov 21 '15 18:11 prashants

Yes I can. but in the B/Sheet it will not appear in correct place (Under Current assets).

RamkrishnaMondal avatar Nov 21 '15 18:11 RamkrishnaMondal

Which place you want it to appear in BS ?

prashants avatar Nov 21 '15 18:11 prashants

(EDITED) 26

BTW the correct format should be : Assets: Liabilities & Equity:

  1. Fixed Assets : 1. Capital & Equity 2.Investments 2. Loans 3.Current Assets : 3. Current Liablities:

I guess you are right. It will be hard to change now though. In your case you can just change it in the below file and redo the installation.

prashants avatar Nov 21 '15 18:11 prashants

I think it sorts by name so that wont fix it completely.

prashants avatar Nov 21 '15 18:11 prashants

I will leave the issue open, maybe in next version.

prashants avatar Nov 21 '15 18:11 prashants

Can't you introduce Groups > Sub-Groups > Ledger A/Cs model ? It will be more Practical.

RamkrishnaMondal avatar Nov 21 '15 18:11 RamkrishnaMondal

Suppose if we have sub groups like BANKS, CREDITORS, DEBTORS ....that will be very very useful.

RamkrishnaMondal avatar Nov 21 '15 18:11 RamkrishnaMondal

Just create a new group under a group. You can nest groups to any level. That should solve your problem.

prashants avatar Nov 21 '15 18:11 prashants

Ok, I shall try that and report here. Thanks.

My Current B/S looks like this:

27

RamkrishnaMondal avatar Nov 21 '15 19:11 RamkrishnaMondal

Some suggestions:

A). Transfer the following groups to the MASTER group and don't let users add into that master group:

1.Fixed Assets, 2.Investments, 3.Current Assets 4.Capital, 5.Loans, 6.Current Liabilities

B). Call their 'full name' so that they can stick to their pre-configured positions.

C). Modify the view/reports/print/balancesheet.php file, so that Dr. & Cr. do not appear in printed B/Sheet.

RamkrishnaMondal avatar Nov 21 '15 19:11 RamkrishnaMondal

D). The word "A/C" should be pre- written (as a disabled button) in the right hand-side, so that users do not enter the word 'A/C' in the name. E). When you call these a/cs in P&L , the A/C word should automatically appear as the dr. cr. appearing now. When you call for B/Sheet the word 'A/C' should not come.

RamkrishnaMondal avatar Nov 21 '15 19:11 RamkrishnaMondal

I will create a separate fork to adjust your changes.

prashants avatar Nov 27 '15 05:11 prashants

D. Lot of ledgers don't have A/C suffix. Like cash, cash on hand, land assets, furniture assets, etc.

prashants avatar Nov 28 '15 17:11 prashants

In theory, each and every Ledger account should have an A/C suffix.
