This document outlines Odoo's accounting roadmap to make accounting features more localized, configurable, and visually appealing. The key goals are to 1) improve localization modules to work out of the box for any country, 2) redesign taxes to be more easily configurable, and 3) create an attractive accounting dashboard and improve bank reconciliation workflows. The team is dedicated to in-depth analysis, refactoring as needed, and working with the community to achieve these goals.
