Hi Parminder

As far as I know I don't think we do (but maybe we have a Canadian user that has already setup OFBiz that can respond to you :-)

Otherwise our main demo accounting master template is US based but can be tailored or even replaced with whatever you need.

I'm not sure what the Canadian requirements are but if you are talking about grouping of accounts into a specific coding structure for reporting then perhaps take a look at USTaxAccountGroups.xml (extracted a few lines from the file we include with OFBiz below) and create a Canadian version

<GlAccountGroup glAccountGroupId="9031" glAccountGroupTypeId="TAX_FIELD_US" description="Schedule C: Gross receipts or sales"/>
    <GlAccountGroup glAccountGroupId="9032" glAccountGroupTypeId="TAX_FIELD_US" description="Schedule C: Returns and allowances"/>
    <GlAccountGroup glAccountGroupId="9033" glAccountGroupTypeId="TAX_FIELD_US" description="Schedule C: Other business income"/>

Another option could be to include a categorisation on the GL Account itself..

Hope this helps.

Thanks
Sharan
