This update improves the accuracy of Ecuadorian accounting by streamlining expense account categories and adding support for 8% VAT. Specifically, redundant expense groups have been consolidated, and expense accounts like salaries and wages are now automatically closed at the end of each accounting period, reducing reconciliation efforts.

Improve the distribution of expense and cost of revenue accounts in Ecuadorian localization We avoided not creating subcategories of expenses by eliminating the group called "Other employee benefit plan expense", which generated duplicity in the accounts. We fixed this by merging the accounts into the main "Employee benefit plan expense" group. Additionally, the account "Other employee benefits' was added to record any other benefits granted directly by the Ecuadorian companies. This ensures a better organization of the accounting setup. Mark as non-reconcilable the expense accounts (salaries and wages, travel expenses, contributions, etc) to avoid unnecessary reconciliation processes, these accounts are income statements and they are not accounts payable/receivable, therefore, they are closed at the end of the accounting period ### opw-4846355 Forward-Port-Of: odoo/odoo#208047
