Introduction

Starting with Banana Accounting 7, it is possible to extend some of the functionalities through little javascript programs.

You can:

  • Add new import formats:
    For example you want to import a txt file that your invoice program export;
     
  • Export data in a custom format:
    For example you want to export the balances of some accounts in a format ready to be published on internet or inserted in other documents;
     
  • Verify the accounting:
    For example you want to test all transactions for a particular condition; You can show the rows that didn't meet the condition in a table, or display a message with detailed information to the user;
     
  • Build a report:
    For example you can go through the transactions or the accounting plan and show statistics information in a report.

At the moment it is not possible to modify values in the accounting files through scripts.
