Can't Create a new PartyAcctgPreference in 16.11.03

[Sharan Foga]

Hi All

I'm running through some tests on a clean OFBiz 16.11.03 install loaded with the seed and seed-initial data. Has something changed with the creation of a new PartyAcctgPreference? (Because if so then I might have found a bug).

In the past (version 13.07) it definitely used to work but now I can't get the system to create a new PartyAcctgPreference for managing the accounting setup for a new party. Initially I thought it was missing data setup or permissions but I've run through the data and security groups and couldn't find anything missing.

I've gone through the exact same steps using 13.07.03 and 16.11.03 and it works in 13.07 but not in 16.11

The steps to reproduce are below:

1. Install seed and seed initial (./gradlew "ofbiz ‐‐load-data readers=seed,seed-initial")

2. Load the admin user (loadAdminUserLogin -PuserLoginId=admin)

3. Login to Party Manager and create a new party group and add the role Internal Organisation

4. Go to Accounting / Organisation GL Settings / Create new accounting company

The new party (with the internal organisation role) appears in the dropdown selection box but when you select it and click “Create new accounting company” the screen stays blank.

It should display the Party accounting preferences setup screen in add mode and allow you to enter the accounting details such as the Fiscal Year Start and Month, GL Journal or Invoice Sequencing) etc.

Does anyone have any ideas of what has changed and why?

Thanks
Sharan

Sharan,

Following your steps at https://demo-stable.ofbiz.apache.org and trunk.
Steps working for me, also please let me know only seed and seed-initial
data is mandatory or it is fine to test it with what current setup we have.

Thanks!

Hi Rishi

(I seem to be having problems responding to your email on this list. I
originally sent this email yesterday before I created the Jira and again
a few minutes ago but it doesn't seem to want to post. I will try a
different solution and see it it works!)

Thanks for taking a look.

To respond to your question – yes the seed and seed-initial data are
mandatory. Any user doing a clean install who does not want the demo
data should still be able to go through all the basic steps to do their
accounting setup their company.

I have created a Jira https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-9542 
and attached the screenshots from my tests.

Thanks
Sharan
