It should be noted that the IFRS's apply differently to each company depending on what industries your business operates in, your accounting policies and 'materiality' of certain aspects of your operations.  An example might be, in IFRS7 which requires disclosure of financial instruments (which includes accounts receivable and accounts payable), that the extent of disclosure required depends on the businesses use of financial instruments and it's exposure to risk.

IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) and IAS (International Accounting Standards) are global standards for accounting. See Wikipedia entry about IFRS

Adempiere seeks to be fully compliant with IFRS/IAS standards.

Currently a review is being conducted of Adempiere and level of compliance is being documented. Where areas of non-compliance are identified, recommendations will be made in order to ensure that future versions meet full IFRS compliance.

The schedule for the review is based on available time and priorities set by the community. If you have a specific project or requirement then please contact Michael Judd.

This project is part of the road map to Accounting Kernel Certification.

It should be noted that the IFRS's apply differently to each company depending on what industries your business operates in, your accounting policies and 'materiality' of certain aspects of your operations. An example might be, in IFRS7 which requires disclosure of financial instruments (which includes accounts receivable and accounts payable), that the extent of disclosure required depends on the businesses use of financial instruments and it's exposure to risk.

There are also numbers non-financial disclosures (i.e. the balances do no manifest themselves in an account in the general ledger) and whilst addressing these is critical in maintaining compliance within IFRS, the information would not necessarily be held in your ERP system. This holds true for other regulatory frameworks such as Sarbanes Oxley Act and Basel II (although you can keep Basel risk data as statistical postings in general ledger).

There are also a some recommendations for Client configuration in the IFRS Compliance Recommendations page.
