Accounting: Plan

Project plan¶

Ideas pool¶

• http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-Proj-Mgmt-HOWTO/
  
• Producing Open Source Software
  
• KISS principle - Keep It Simple Stupid - Does it apply to development process or the user experience? Or both?
  • Ideally to both. Of course you can't have simple solution to a complex problem but you can subdivide the big problem into smaller ones. Divide and conquer.
• Features (to review and prioritize later):
  • Multi-currency support
  • Customizable tax definitions (e.g. GST, Income tax, fringe benefits, etc)
  • Helper reports (e.g. GST return sample with all the amounts entered)
  • Important dates reminders (e.g. end of year tax return, etc.)
  • Bank Statements import
  • Predefined Accounts/Categories templates for different business types.
  • Invoices
  • Stock
  • General journal
  • Statement reconciliation
  • Asset tracking - with automatic depreciation calculation. This might actually be quite useful as a stand alone utility, which we can also integrate into the full accounting package.
  • Session logs (to product session reports)
  • Automatic GST reconciliation reports creation when doing any changes to transactions that impact filed GST returns.
  • Automatic journal entries (e.g. when GST return filed - to clear GST for previous period)
  • "End-of-year" commands.
