Dear all,

We have now completed the MVC Cleanup [1] and version 4 is once more usable. However before the final release we are going to merge a couple of big changes in ERPNext too.

1. Customer and Supplier will now be merged into Party and separate account heads will now not be created for them. Instead all accounting entries will be against Party and "Accounts Payable" or "Accounts Receivable". This will bring us closer to the standardized accounting practices.

2. We will allow selection of Chart of Accounts for multiple countries. We have taken the existing Charts from OpenERP as a starting point. This will not affect existing users who already have a Chart setup.

We will need 2 weeks to test these changes, so the final release of Version 4 will be end of April.

Thanks again for your patience!

best,
Rushabh

Hi Rushabh,

I think the postponement of V4 is now getting too long and I think it is you who is against this kind of big time change in code going by what you wrote on 2012 here. I would still recommend that if possible that you people should release v4 and the other updates could come as and when ready.

As always this would help reduce the burden of enormous number of tickets coming your way with the new release, ok I hope this time around with a major release we would have no tickets given the test cases in your armour but I still believe that the test cases might have overlooked a few places where the real world people would find the bugs.

Hence as a user I would recommend that you go ahead with the v4 release since many of the other things at customer end (read my end) are just lingering on because the users are waiting for the v4 release patiently for almost 2 months now.

Just a personal view and I guess this was your view as well a few months ago.....

Dear Sir
please add one thing on your new release version 4
you have to add total for every report
like
if i want to now how much sales  i made for specific item it must show the total amount
if i want to now my top customer it must show a total amount he/she purchased from me
if i want to see account recievable for specific customer it must show the total recievable...and so on
thanks it will be very vital for all of your customers in the world
also the time is becoming long...so its better if you release it as you have now
thanks

Aditya,

Thanks for reminding :) We will push off Party model to the next release. Maybe 4.1

We will start doing the final rounds of testing and start releasing sometime next week!

Thanks Rushabh,

Honestly speaking, I did not want to postpone the Party model since that is one thing on my list since a very long time but still I guess it would be right not to mix so many updates as erpnext now I guess is too complicated and big for a such a large update with the limited resources at your disposal.

Once again, we all are looking forward to another star performance by the team as always.
