explanation on GL setup in ofbiz
Hi Everyone,
Does anyone have a detail explanation of the following:
Gl Account Type Id
Gl Account Class Id
Gl Resource Type Id
Gl Xbrl Class Id
Parent Gl Account Id
Also if you want to associate costs and sales with a specific store how would you do it. Using Party Group, Store Setup. Normally each store has sales, revenue and costs and we would like to allocate them. It would very hard to maintain an organization structure with each store as subsidiary. So is there a simple way to organize it.
Regards,
Vikrant

What do you mean by technical language here? This is modeling of pure business data, and usually most accountants with experience are okay with tabular structures, and if they have a lot of experience then they should be able to pick up even rather complex and feature rich financial data structures like those in OFBiz.
So, could you be more specific about what you mean by business versus technical language? The way I see it this is all business, no technical, but it is fairly complex and because financial system requirements are that way by nature you can only simplify it (dumb it down) so much.

Hi Anil,
Thanks for the reference; we do have that book with us. But as you know in a company you cannot talk in technical language. This terms needs to be explained to Finance and we need to talk in Finance terms not technical implementation :).
So asked if anyone done any simple documentation on these terms. In the process we are also working towards making the terms more business friendly :). Would give it back when it's ready.
Regards,
Vikrant
