--------------------------------------------------------------
It is a pity that this community not seems to be interested in functionality
which is essential for large companies such as accounting segments or sometimes
called accounting tagging or tags. The current patch is already out of date.
So for large companies we have created a git repository called Growerp-Prof at
http://gerrit.antwebsystems.com which is the OFBiz trunk converted from OFBiz
SVN to Git which will be updated daily and where we will keep the functionality
of ledger segments or tags updated among other functionality important for
large companies.
Please note that all repositories visible at jenkins.antwebsystems.com all have
the apache 2 license and can be downloaded without restriction with any Git
client program.
i will close this issue for now.

> Introduce Accounting ledger segmentation

> Key: OFBIZ-5282
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5282
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: accounting
> Affects Versions: SVN trunk
> Environment: any
> Reporter: Hans Bakker
> Assignee: Jacopo Cappellato
> Fix For: SVN trunk
>
> Attachments: ledgersegmentOct18.patch
>
>
> We have the possibility here to be able to introduce Apache OFBiz accounting
> in a large multi company organization. This organization is evaluating the
> several alternatives and after evaluation of OFBiz, came up with a function
> which OFBiz needs to have, in order to be considered.
> The user story:
> Although OFBiz accounting has the 'costcenter' function, it is not
> fine-grained enough, we need to be able to segment the ledger to a lower
> level that the GL accounts namely to the accounting transaction.. Further,
> all existing reports should have the facility to be able to select a segment
> of the ledger for either costing, profit or other purposes like special
> projects.
> The proposed user interface.
> We need at least at the order item level the ability to specify a
> parent-segment/segment and a percentage, if the percentange is not 100% the
> remainder to 100% should be assigned to another segment.
> These segments can be defined and assigned by the user to the order item upon
> entry. When the related invoice is created the segment(s) will be copied and
> can overridden before posting when these segment names will be copied to the
> accounting transaction.
> The proposed user reporting.
> All existing ledger reports will have the additional ability to select these
> segments and will only incorporate accounting transactions where this segment
> is specified.
> The proposed technical implementation.
> 1. add a new entity called LedgerSegment with fields: ledgerSegmentId,
> parentSegmentId, description
> 2. add another 3 similar entities: OrderItemSegment, InvoiceItemSegment,
> AcctTransSegment to make the relation to the LedgerSegment entity and to
> specify the percentage.
> 3. Change the order, invoice, accounting transaction screens and ledger
> report entity views to be able to use the segment names when available in the
> LedgerSegment entity
> As i said , please let me know what you think, this is a great opportunity
> for OFBiz accounting.
