Chris,
First, I wanted to say that after a long talk with our accountant, we will
be setting up the configuration as follows:
SPI member organizations == CoA entires (e.g. 1210-PG: Individual
Donations: PostgreSQL)
Specific events and campaigns: Projects (e.g. PGSummit: PostgreSQL
Anniversary Summit)
So I'm finally tinkering around with bringing the accounts up to date using
LedgerSMB. And I'm having a LOT of trouble.
I simply can't find any screen in ledgerSMB which would be equivalent to
adding a donation, given that we would have to split the donation between
more than one CoA and/or between projects frequently.
AR: Transaction only allows me to enter one CoA and project for the total
amount.
Sales Invoice records multiple line-items, but does not allow designating a
specific account or project.
Take for example this donation: the Open Technology Group gives us $1000
for the PostgreSQL Anniversary Summit, which is a Silver sponsorship. I
want to take in the $1000, and as a single transaction put in:
$950 as Individual Donations: PostgreSQL / PGSummit
$50 as Individual Donations: SPI / Overhead
Some donations could be split even more ways:
$15 to PostgreSQL
$25 to Debian
$5 to SPI
I can't see any way to do that except by creating two (or more) completely
separate transactions. Help?
