Camptocamp improve the Swiss localization (l10n_ch) / Camptocamp améliore la localisation Suisse (l10n_ch)

Monday, October 26th, 2009 by Joël Grand-Guillaume

** (French part below) **

Hi all !

I have the pleasure to announce that Camptocamp released improvements to the OpenERP official Swiss localization module (l10n_ch). Remember that Camptocamp is the official developer and maintainer of this localization!

This module includes:

  • Full BVR support to generate electronic invoices in Switzerland
  • Import of standardized bank V11 files  from Swiss bank into OpenERP
  • Electronic payments via DTA (specific electronic payments used by Swiss banks)

This new release includes the following improvements:

  • DTA generation file : avoids encoding errors (thanks for contributions)
  • Support of old BVR references
  • Temporary solution for the non functional expr tag in the RML
  • Temporary solution for the missing ocrb file
  • Easy insertion of fields on the res.partner.bank view : allows to choose what to print on BVRs
  • Support on error messages translation
  • Addition of last translations from Launchpad

Note:  OpenERP still has trouble with payment orders in foreign currency; this affects also the DTA payments into our Swiss localization.

Best regards,

Joël Grand-Guillaume

OpenERP tax 100% on import

Wednesday, July 8th, 2009 by Luc Maurer

Companies that are making importations often receive invoices from the carrier which does only have taxes.

Here is a small tutorial on which you will learn how to input it into OpenERP to be sure that the tax declaration is correct. This screencast should also help you.

Tax code creation

The first step is to create a new tax code : "100% import" for example.

  1. Create a new tax code : financial managerment > configuration > financial accounting > taxes > taxe
  2. Type = Percent
  3. Amount = 0
  4. Tax account and child tax account = nothing
  5. Tax application = purchase (never put all)
  6. Base code and Refund base code (2nd tab) = the tax code you are normally using for purchase tax code
  7. Base code sign = -1
  8. Tax code sign = 1

New supplier invoice

When you receive a new carrier invoice with tax on it (for example 2000 CHF):

  1. Add a new line for the tax => put the amount : 2000
  2. The account is the "tax refund account" => that mean the account you are normally using to put the VAT amount you will received from the tax administration => in switzerland : "1170 TVA déductible sur achat de biens et services"
  3. Specify the tax of the invoice line : "100% Import" and press tax computation

That’s it ! I hope it will help you.

Close fiscal year for 4.2 version : new c2c module

Wednesday, March 4th, 2009 by Luc Maurer

English version
[Version française ci-dessous]

Hello,

Camptocamp is proud to announce the release of a new module which allows to close a fiscal year at any time (4.2 version) : c2c_fiscal_year_close. You have access to the code on launchpad ( ~openerp-commiter/openobject-addons/4.2-extra-addons).

You will see the details of the module below and a screencast which explains how to use it : http://www.screencast.com/t/lXLRJoQca

Camptocamp can offer you support with the closing procedure. Don’t hesitate to contact us : tinyerp at camptocamp.com

Best Regards

Luc Maurer

Detail of the module :

This module addresses the wizard "close fiscal year" of the 4.2 version of OpenERP => it allows:

  • Closing at any time
  • Report correct non reconciles entries (positions open)
  • Automatic transfer actual year result to the balance sheet
  • Automatic closing of fiscal year periods
  • News data checking
  • Checking of the "closing type" of the accounts (compared to the "closing type" of the "type of account")

The module works like this :

  1. Tests (opening and closing journal, dates, previous fiscal years status, etc. ..)
  2. Transfer the actual year result to the balance sheet
  3. Transfer the account balance of "balance" type to the new fiscal year transfer of 31.12 non reconciles entries to the new fiscal year (based on the dates of reconciled entries)
  4. Reconciliation of the "new entries" entry to remove the conflict with the initial invoice entry
  5. Closing periods and fiscal year

The module does not:

  • Re-open closed fiscal year (but we’re available if you want that we developp it :-) )
  • Separate the step of transfering account balance and the step of closing (=> same we can do it if necessary)

Many thanks to Nicolas for his work :-)

  6. clôture des périodes et de l’exercice

Le module ne :

  • permet pas de dé-clôturer (mais nous sommes à votre disposition si vous souhaitez que nous le développions :-) )
