Introduce Localization Packages in General Ledger
-------------------------------------------------

                 Key: OFBIZ-3411
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-3411
             Project: OFBiz
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: accounting
    Affects Versions: Release Branch 9.04, SVN trunk
         Environment: any
            Reporter: Carsten Schinzer
             Fix For: Release Branch 9.04, SVN trunk


This record requests the readiness of current OFBiz releases (last stable release branch and trunk) to be ready for localization packages. Basically, a localization package needs to enable the accounting module to:
(1) adopt Locale-legislation (if existent) or industry practice for financial reporting (by changing GlAccountClass entities)
(2) adopt Locale-dependant best-practice or widely-used accounting schemes, i.e. account numbers, related asset types etc.
(3) connect these two asset types with OFBiz specific entities such as InvoiceItem(Type)s, workflow elements (default accounts) etc.

In order to achieve this, the structure of files (within accounting/data/*.xml) needs to be reviewed and clearly separated into:
* seed-initial data
* seed data
* locale-dependant data
* demo data

Extended analysis and final aproach will be documented on: 
   http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Guide+to+OFBiz-i18n%2C++Internationalisation+of+OFBiz
and it's related wiki pages.
