In addition to other replies I'd like to suggest a dump + translate approach. I expect that is what Sebastien will have offered you (he will say if I am wrong). Reasons 1) I expect other governments are going to require slightly different filings as time goes by. 2) it is silly to go through the process anew for each government and per government change when the underlying data isn't changing, but the government silliness is Suggestion export to ledger-cli (or beancount) format (Sebastien's piecash can do this and a number of other tools can too) and I expect Sebastien is using this sort of dump code anyway as I said above. Then we have "all of us" plus "all of the text-accounting folk" with one input file format and one output file format for each of the mildly competitive governments ... that way we all solve one problem together, easy. -- Wm _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
