#49 CDB - multiline recordings

[Torben S. Soerensen]

Hi,

Sometimes you need to record something - e.g. a received purchase invoice - that you need to split out on several accounts.

You probably credit the creditor the full amount incl. VAT and then need to split out the full amount on a number of accounts. Currently you will need to create as many lines in the CDB as accounts you want to split the invoice to - that takes a while.

What we need is a new button beside the contra account that opens a window where you can enter the accounts to use and that keeps track on the balance too.

PS!

I would like it implmented in a way that allows you to see the recording as entered later on. I imagine that you can se a new attribute (e.g. "multiline" on each of the recordings. Together with the receipt no you can spot that the recording is multiline and create the correct view.

This task has been given to Gordan, but due to some problems creating an account on SF is it not yet assigned to him.

Additional instructions:
It's a kind of helper function to manual editing of the cash day book. The idea is that if you have for ex. to pay back money to an employee for parking, lunch etc. then you have to pay the total amount to the employee, but you need to split the costs on an number of accounts. Then you can credit the employee and the use this helper window to enter amounts for the other accounts and the helper window will keep track of how much that remains to be distributed to other accounts.
