Swiss localization evolution

Written for OpenERP Swiss Localization by Nicolas Bessi - Camptocamp on 2012-12-21

Dear community,

In order to face the future with serenity, important changes have been made in swiss localization addon in version 7.

The swiss localization is probably one of the oldest localization of OpenERP. It exists since version 3.4 of (TinyERP) OpenERP.
The quality and the monolithic aspect of the l10n_ch addon code will not allows us to face tomorrow changes, needs and adoption of new payment/interbanking standards by Switzerland Financial institutes.

So majors refactoring of the modules have been made:

- l10n_ch: Multilang swiss STERCHI account chart and taxes (official addon)
- l10n_ch_base_bank: Technical module that introduces a new and simplified version of bank type management
- l10n_ch_bank: List of swiss banks
- l10n_ch_zip: List of swiss postal zip
- l10n_ch_dta: Support of dta payment protocol (will be deprecated end 2014)
- l10n_ch_payment_slip: Support of ESR/BVR payment slip report and reconciliation. Report refactored with easy element positioning and big triming of obsolete code.
- l10n_ch_sepa: Alpha implementation of PostFinance SEPA/PAIN support will be completed during 2013/2014

The modules will be soon available on OpenERP swiss localization on launchpad:
