An error occurred while saving the comment Anonymous commentedThere are a thousand feature requests and very few developers of this free software. I fear that by adding 'features' we lose focus on the foundation product: excellent double-entry accounting.
Might it not be more productive to ask for a product API that allows other's to create add-on products?
I have to strongly disagree with this. Files are files, they are not raw data. I find that my workflow is no more difficult; I just process the invoice, scan into a folder for today's work, save using a formula:
INV 29826 - 2018-11-29 - client name - client number - total.
Now I am able to fully text-search these with Google any time, I can also choose to import these into ANY program at ANY time because I follow a data-import friendly naming schema.
You WILL change accounting programs one day - or your accountant will want copies - or something.
Your documents are yours. Raw data goes into databases, not files.
The devs are an extremely small team and we need them to focus on the core functionality of BOOKKEEPING. Linking to an existing file is a very efficient solution and is the same one used by QuickBooks. Odoo and others.
