Dear all,
I hope that this is the right place/module to post. I know OpenERP 6.04 very well and recently installed OCB 8.0 and 9.0 (as Odoo is becoming proprietary).
Please pardon my ignorance if this feature is already present in OCB.
When closing a year, accountants print a general balances with:
This allows to verify that the opening values are the same as in the end of the previous year and compare the balance with fiscal declarations (results, VAT, etc ...). In case of fiscal inquiry by the administration, such a balance is requested. It is a legal issue.
OCB can print a general balance with debit, credit and balance (in the end of the year). But we need also:
Commercial software always print opening and closing values. I suspect this feature is needed in every country and it would help a lot of people.
Odoo company never did the job of working on a compliant accounting, so I may pick-up myself this issue inside OCA. Please pick it up if you are interested.
Feel free to include this kind of report in the SPEC around accounting rework. I will join the accounting group later, sorry I could not attend the 2016/sprint in Italy (as I was not aware).
Kind regards, Kellogs
