Tryton module for accounting

Project description

The account module defines fundamentals for most of accounting needs.

The module generates minimal chart of accounts for many languages. The XML files for each language are generated from the same original XML file thanks to the localize.xsl XSLT script. The script will produce on the standard output the desired XML file. The XSLT script can be launched with the following command:

xsltproc --stringparam lang <lang> localize.xsl minimal_chart.xml

where lang is one of the languages.

Fiscal Year

A fiscal year aggregates a set of periods that are included between two dates. A Fiscal year can be Open, Closed or Locked. Closing a fiscal year will close all the corresponding periods. A Locked fiscal can not be re-open.

  • Name: The name of the fiscal year.

  • Code: The code, useful for fast data entry and searching.

  • Starting and Ending Date: The dates in which the periods should be included.

  • Company: The company for which the fiscal year is defined.

  • State: Can be Open, Closed or Locked.

  • Periods: The list of periods.

  • Post Move Sequence: The sequence to use for numbering moves in this fiscal year.

The Balance Non-Deferral wizard allow to create a move that will debit/credit each non-deferral account in such way to have a balance equals to zero for the fiscal year and debit/credit a counter part account.

Period

A period is mainly defined by a Starting and an Ending date, a Fiscal Year, a Type and a State (Open, Closed or Locked).

The type can be Standard or Adjustement: Periods of type Standard on the same fiscal year can not overlap. Period of type Adjustement can overlap other periods and are typically used for all the accounting moves that must be created when closing a fiscal year. By default, the system uses only Standard period when creating moves.

Each account move must be linked to a period and a move must be created on an open period.
