Did you load demo data, or just seed? The following command loads demo data: ./ant run-install to just load seed data: ./ant run-install-seed
If you loaded demo data an organization is setup called "Company" and the demo accounting data uses that as the internal org. If you are wanting to setup accounting in a real environment you need to do a build that only loads seed, then login and create a Party as your internal org. Then look in the accounting/data directory for all demo data files. There will be a chart of accounts and a mapping of the accounts to an org. Replace all occurrences of "Company" with your new partyId. Not sure where to set to FIFO, but I know I've seen it. Regarding time periods, there is also xml in the demo data to create your initial time periods. Check this before loading it as I believe it also refers to the internal org so you will need to change that partyId before loading time periods. I highly recommend you involve someone that understands accounting and OfBiz to use the accounting capabilities. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Scott." <sc...@anglolimited.com> To: user@ofbiz.apache.org Sent: Thursday, January 29, 2009 2:28:53 PM (GMT-0700) America/Denver Subject: Accounting setup I have a few questions regarding accounting and I’m wondering if someone could point me in the right direction please? Here they are; Accounting Preferences: (/accounting/control/AdminMain?organizationPartyId=Company) Where can I make changes to this screen? Must it be done in the seed data? There is an update button but no edit button. Where can I set the inventory accounting method to FIFO? Time Period For: (/accounting/control/TimePeriods?organizationPartyId=Company) I’ve setup time periods in accounting. Fiscal Year 1 and 4 fiscal quarters having the fiscal year as the Parent Period ID. Do I have to do this for next year (2010) and the year after (2011), etc or once set, will ofbiz continue to add? Thanks in advance for the help. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Accounting-setup-tp21736258p21736258.html Sent from the OFBiz - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
