Free demo/trial

To make sure this service meets your reporting requirements we offer free demo. Just send us required report description or a query. We shall build the report for you to make sure you get what you are expecting.

Dieter Simader, the creator of sql-ledger, in an email has asked me to clarify my position regarding sql-ledger development. He has specifically referenced my this (http://bit.ly/aR7XM1) mailing list posting.

I am sorry for any confusion caused and would clarify that Dieter is *the* developer of sql-ledger and any new official version as well as updates are developed and released by him.

I have built my business (www.ledger123.com) around sql-ledger services (hosting, development, docs, support) but I am not associated with DWS Systems Inc.

SQL-Ledger enhancements and bug fixes

The enhancements and bug fixes I offer at github.com/ledger123 are not official. These enhancements and bug fixes have been sponsored by sql-ledger users and are available freely to anyone.

As a side note, it seems that new sql-ledger versions from Dieter are not open source. I shall however keep releasing new features and enhancements for sql-ledger which will be free/open source. (And as usual you can always sponsor a particular feature or enhancement)

Mailing list

I have created (and maintaining) this mailing list as a free resource for helping sql-ledger users. This is not official mailing list.

The official mailing list which was functioning for the last 10 years has been terminated by Dieter for unknown reasons.

I am also banned from joining and contributing to the Dieter’s support forum. This list is however open for everyone to join and contribute.

With the help of a kind user I was able to restore old mailing list archives at http://www.ledger123.com/archives/

Hope this clarifies any doubts.

Free sql-ledger hosting for new users will be available again in February 2010.

Before that we shall be activating our new mailman mailing list for free support and upgrade our existing documentation.

Thanks for your support.

We have enhanced sql-ledger csv data import funciton. Now you can import following additional transactions:

1. Sales invoices with payments (enhanced the built-in functionality)
2. AR/AP transactions
3. General Ledger
4. Purchase Orders
5. Parts and Price lists
6. Customers and Vendors
7. Chart of Accounts

Download the latest enhancements from our git repository.

Currently free sql-ledger hosting accounts are not available. We are sorry for any inconvenience caused. We shall start offering free accounts as soon as we have more capacity.

You can, however, sign up our paid sql-ledger hosting. Just go to the sign up page and select a plan which suits your requirements.

SQL-Ledger 2.8.26 has been released to by sql-ledger.com to fix few bugs in 2.8.25. Interestingly there seems to be two updates with 2.8.26 tag.

Here are code changes of first update and second update.

We are slowly adding new features to our enhanced sql-ledger release. In the past few weeks, we have made following changes:

1. You can display account description on GL reports.
2. COGS re-posting script has been added which will help to correct accounting errors in your data due to editing of sale invoices.

The COGS re-posting script is still under-development and should be considered as beta quality code at this time. Please test it and report any bugs to support@ledger123.com.

We also have planned to add a number of major enhancements in the coming weeks. Stay in touch.

SQL-Ledger 2.8.25 has been released by sql-ledger.com. We have added code from this release to our github repository.

We have not merged this code with our enhanced version due to a number of bug reports with 2.8.25. . We shall, however, selectively add features from new release to our enhancements or may rewrite some of the new enhancements ourselves to avoid the associated bugs.

Our blog has moved to http://ledger123.blogspot.com/.

Kindly update your bookmarks and RSS readers.

This is our first step towards moving away from WordPress for managing our website and blog.

Wordpress is a great tool but to automate provisioning of our sql-ledger hosting and billing we are going to rebuild our website using a more flexible tool.
