Thanks to Katrin and Colin for their questions/notes on the wiki page (http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/GST_Rewrite_RFC#Questions_.2F_notes) [snip] 2/ Rounding I suggest to add a new pref to define the decimal to get for price calculation. So we need to change all the price DB fields to something like decimal(13,4).
Quick thought: not sure what other institutions use for "accounts", but we use Sage software which sets up the MySQL db to *two* decimal points for all items and at all three tax levels (0, 5 and 13%) -- it would perhaps be useful, particularly if other accounting systems do the same, to maintain consistency (or at least allow the choice.) The rounding errors are minor (they rarely if ever cascade), but a PITA for the auditors.
