Australian Chart of Accounts
Preparation of an Australian Chart of Accounts, based on the MYOB chart.
There is already one distributed with standard OpenERP; is this suitable?
Should also look at the Uniform System of Accounts.
Should also look at the SBR chart of accounts, as referred to here: http://

Don't look too closely at the COA, it needs a real accountant to tidy it up
I believe the tax setup is a bit of a fudge, since the tax amount (10% or 1.1) is embedded in the 'Coefficient for parent' for some of the tax codes, whereas I think this number should really only be 1 or -1. I can't remember the logic behind this setup anymore - I just needed to do my BAS!

Whiteboard
Every company will have their own chart, and their accountant will have to determine this
Most businesses will already have a COA that they will simply replicate in OpenERP, so having a standard chart is not, IMO, a big deal. I don't think OpenERP is in the same position MYOB is, since MYOB is used by a lot of startups, whereas OpenERP is something businesses are upgrading to.
MYOB, for instance, has multiple charts to choose from anyway, so are we going to create a bunch of COA for different business types? I think just having the basic structure, and using MYOB's numbering will be sufficient.
