So 1.3 does whatever (still unknown) 1.2 does?
Whatever that is, it is most likely not what one wants.

The only thing I can think of, is causing departments to be associated 
with line items alo projects.

Force grouping by department, and reset running numbers within a 
departmental section of an order or invoice.

1 department = no change from current behavior.

more than 1 = For invoice and order output, use multiple sections, headed 
by the department.

For financial tracking, on a full payment, divide appropriately by line 
item into departments.  For a partial payment...go fish.:(  I have no idea 
how to handle a partial payment.  At least, not any that has any logic 
behind it.  I suppose you could pop up an apportion-by-department screen 
when entering payments, but that doesn't sound like something that goes 
well with the workflow.
