Hi Iain, From: "Iain Fogg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > + Order level discounting doesn't work properly for in the GST > environment. Eg, I have an item for $110, which includes $10 GST.

Did you try on POS with last svn (that's what I guess but not sure) ? Because I have tried only without taxes yet .... > #1 for me is being able to record my prices tax-inclusive, yet still > ensure that local reporting requirements are met (eg, displaying the > amount of GST in the sale), and that the GL tracks the GST component. Yes that's the problem we have to cope with if we want to have happy customers :o) > I think we already the flag to indicate whether prices include tax, but > it's not clear that this has relevance for GST?VAT (please correct me if > I'm wrong). For the moment taxes are not differentiated, please see : http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-366 >We also need a flag(s) to indicate whether we need to report > the tax component, and whether the reporting needs to be on the item or > order level. As mentioned above, order adjustments need to be made > sensitive to the GST/VAT environment, but perhaps the simplest thing is > just to train users not to ever use order-level adjustments :-) Here they are some differents rules. For instance in Italy and France if you have Jacopo explained that here : http://www.nabble.com/Users---tax-functionality-tf1428622.html) But it's no the same in Germany for instance. Here is also an interesting remark going your way (customising cutomers ;o) http://www.nabble.com/Users---tax-functionality-tf1428622.html Thanks for your comments PS : One question out of subject : I do use Outlook Express (OE) on Windows (was trapped long before ;o). When I respond to an ML msg only to the sender, automatically OE send also a copy to ML. I wonder if it would not be a best practise to respond only to the ML (to avoid double messages to the intial sender). What do you think ? Jacques
