Pierre Smits commented on OFBIZ-6646:
-------------------------------------
Hard coding reports structures might prove too limiting regarding the needs in
various countries and/or organisations. Maybe we should try to exploit XBRL
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XBRL) for various management reports in a
separate component. XBRL seems to be a standard in the FICO reporting world.
> Option either to show parent GL account in accounting reports (BS & IS) or to
> customize the report

>
> Currently, balance sheet and income statement only show lowest level / child
> GL accounts having at least one transaction, hence a balance, in a period.
> However, as an end user, I find it is necessary to show all Parent GL
> accounts which balance is the sum of all its child accounts.
> For us, they are more than just to show up in the "Navigate accounts"
> section. They are main sections of our own reports. The standard format of
> reports in Ofbiz is too condensed and the users do not have the option to
> customize this.
> I have tried to customize the Income Statement by creating some new GL
> account classes e.g "Non Operation Expenses" via Entity Data Maintenance but
> they don't show up in Income Statement. So I guess it is not that
> straightforward to customize reports.
