Hi,

I started using gnucash 2 months ago and I'm currently using it in
parallel with another accounting software. In general gnucash does what I
want (VAT accounting, accrual accounting of other taxes). However,
currently when I post an invoice I also have to post a bill for some
percentage of its net value as my income tax (I'm in a scheme where
income tax is just a percentage of income, no expenses are taken into
account etc). I'm looking for some method to automate this.

Ideally I'd love to be able to run some code (guile/python) when a new
invoice is posted. That code could then create and post a bill to be paid
before the 20th of next month for the taxman.

Another option is, to create a bill every month on the 1st, to be paid next
month on the 20th and the amount to be a percentage of net value of sales
invoiced this month.

I don't know if any of this is possible in gnucash. I know about the
offline python and scheme APIs (offline as it can manipulate the accounts
when gnucash is not). I could write a python script that runs with some
regularity and creates/updates the income bills based on the invoices
present, but this doesn't seem such a "nice" solution as to have some code
run at the moment an invoice is posted, or have some formula in the bill
value that takes into account this month's sales.

 If anyone has an idea how to do the above, please let me know,
Luk
