As a consequence we recommend to leave this field empty. The company country will be set to Belgium afterwards by the l10n_be_coa_multilang setup wizard.</p> <p>The setup wizard may fail when running on an Odoo instance without patch <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/odoo/odoo/pull/21937">https://github.com/odoo/odoo/pull/21937</a>.</p> <a name="configuration"></a> <h3>Configuration</h3> <a name="chart-of-accounts"></a> <h4>1) Chart of Accounts</h4> <p>This module has a different approach than l10n_be for the population of the Chart of Accounts (CoA).</p> <p>The l10n_be module comes with a fully populated CoA whereas this module will only create the CoA Groups and a strict minimum set of general accounts.</p> <p>In order to have a fully populated CoA, you have to import your own CoA after the installation of this module. You can use the standard account import button in order to do this. When importing your chart of accounts the reporting tags and user type will be set automatically based upon the account group (the first digits of the account code).</p> <a name="fiscal-year"></a> <h4>2) Fiscal Year</h4> <p>Configure your Fiscal Years via Accountint -&gt; Configuration -&gt; Date Ranges.</p> <a name="vat-declarations"></a> <h4>3) VAT Declarations</h4> <p>By default the 'invoicing' contact of the Company is used as contact for the VAT Declarations. Ensure that this contact has a valid e-mail and phone number since these fields will be used for the Intervat XML VAT declarations.</p> <a name="known-issues-roadmap"></a> <h3>Known issues / Roadmap</h3> <blockquote> <ul class="simple"> <li>Add extra controls to the VAT declaration wizards.</li> </ul> </blockquote> <a name="bug-tracker"></a> <h3>Bug Tracker</h3> <p>Bugs are tracked on <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/luc-demeyer/noviat-apps/issues">GitHub Issues</a>.
