Deployment instructions

Re-filter

Currently to re-filter you have to do this through the rails console

To re-filter all

1. Add a new filter to;

   db/seeds.db
       

2. Optionally add any new accounts to;

   db/chart_of_accounts.csv
       

3. Run the seed

   rake db:seed
       

4. Run

   rails c
   Transaction.refilter
       

Look at what’s in sundries

1. Use rails console

   rails c
       

2. Get sundries account

   a=Account.find_by_code(999)
       

3. List all debit transactions

   a.debit_trans
       

4. List all credit transactions

   a.credit_trans
       

5. Display it nicely in a table

   Sort by description and pick filters to match the most

   tp a.debit_trans.order(:description), {:date =>{:width=>14}}, {:description =>{:width => 50}}, :amount
       

   Sort by amount and pick filters to match the largest amounts

   tp a.debit_trans.order("amount_cents DESC"), {:date =>{:width=>14}}, {:description =>{:width => 50}}, :amount
