Projects:Financial Invoices/Functional Documentation

Overview & Justification

Purpose

The purpose of this document is to describe the Functional Specifications of Financial Invoice Lines in core enhancement.

Currently Openbravo allows any sales and purchase invoice posting through product. We have to configure goods in product configuration. Some company/customer don't want treat their assets as a product.They don't want posting to be happened in product account. They want directly posting in the asset account which is configured in general ledger. It is not only useful for assets. It is also useful for any posting directly on general ledger in sales and purchase invoices.

Scope and Overview

In Scope:

The Financial Invoice Lines is going to cover the following main areas:

Out of Scope:

It is not dealing any label changes or definition. It should be belong to template for specific customer. For example one of the customer wants to have Purpose instead of Description when we choose general ledger item in invoice line screen. It can be dealt in their specific templates , not through this enhancement.

Overview:

1. G/L Item Accounting Setup:

Enable in Financial Invoices - This new flag must be set to "Yes" which means that only those G/L items marked as "Enable in Financial Invoices" will be shown to be selected by the end-user while booking a Financial Invoice in the Invoice Line window. Besides and in case the end-user selects this new flag the fields "Tax" and "Withholding" will be automatically removed from the G/L window and only "Tax Category" new field will be shown there as described in the next sentence. It is important to remark that a new field needs to be created for the G/L item which is the Tax Category, therefore it can be later on used to get the appropriate Tax for each Invoice Line.

2.Changes in the Invoice Line:

We don't have any modification on header screens of purchase or sales invoices. We will have a flag in Lines screen that should be useful whether business user choosing product based or general ledger based posting in given line. We will also have mixed entries. one can be product and the other one can be general ledger item in the same invoice line.

For example say if financial invoice line is yes, he can choose appropriate general ledger item from account/gl item id combo box. if financial invoice line is no, it will be usual steps what we have before.

Justification

Some of the customers want to posting some of the expenses or revenue directly on general ledger item, but not through products in purchase or sales invoices. For example, one of the customer wants booking of additions and disposal of assets directly posting to assets account rather they don't want treat their assets as product and they don't want to configure assets in to product account. So this case we have to allow our invoice lines to accept general ledger item directly instead of product. If user choose general ledger item, we have to directly posting into chosen general ledger item and ignore product account. The same scenario will be fit enough for "Tax not deductible organization" where we will treat VAT as a expenses of general ledger item instead of product expenses account. It is same across globe. So we can for core enhancement rather specific module.

New definitions and acronyms

It is a new flag to distinguish between G/L item and product lines.

Tax As Expenses

VAT will be posted as an expenses in case of Not Tax Deductible Organization. If it is a product, it is a product expenses account. In our case it will take the account from general ledger accounting configuration. So VAT deductible entry will be differ for Not Tax Deductible organization, however there is no changes in the tax deductible organization.
