Hi Joel, could you please tell me how the discussion ended up in Version 5? In the German forum there is a discussion about the correct python data type goin' on and from our point of view its an bug to use a float instead of an int.

I have a doubt about how OpenERP handle all rounding problematic. I think we have a trouble here which is linked to lots of other bug report. We always find a way to have a work around, but at the end, we may be must make something :) All the trouble comes from rounding the float on X digits, according to price_accuracy. I think we should not round a float at all, but use the type Decimal in python to handle that rounding. Overall when we discuss about multi-currency accounting... We have also unused filed into the currency, like "computation accuracy", and a "rounding" precision which is used instead of price_accuracy sometimes. So what is used where ? I think sometimes we take the price_accuracy, sometimes we take the rounding precision of the currency... It's not clear and I think we should review all of this. I put here all reported bug I've seen talking about that: Foreign currency invoice: https://bugs.launchpad.net/openobject-addons/+bug/452854 Rounding Tax: https://bugs.launchpad.net/openobject-addons/+bug/328077 Residual amount in invoice: https://bugs.launchpad.net/openobject-addons/+bug/427869 Rounding regression: https://bugs.launchpad.net/openobject-server/+bug/445535 Accuracy of float values doesn't match price_accuracy : https://bugs.launchpad.net/openobject-client-web/+bug/459027 Comments and ideas welcome, Regards, _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~c2c-oerpscenario Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~c2c-oerpscenario More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
