You would create a custom component as descibed in the wiki FAQ. Depending on how you're using OFBiz the custom component could be based on the order manager or the accounting component
Depending on the uniformity of your tax code and the uniformity of your product(if your purchase tax rate is the same as your sale tax rate for that item...always AND you simply resell the product you purchased unchanged) you could divide price paid by (1+ tax) using the tax rules you've set up for the product and store that number as the base price then subtract base price from price paid to enter as tax adjustment. Otherwise, if your industry doesn't follow the uniformity or you have some sort of manufacturing component in your business, you'll have to set up additional tax rules that are related to the SupplierProduct entity. Because this won't be very elegant, if you have to go this route, it may be more worthwhile to rewrite the product entities to be generic and and strip Product.productId of any implied meaning outside of being a unique identifier (which would solve a lot of industry specific issues that would be very dificult for OFBiz to solve otherwise, but that currently fall in the category of worrying about issues that no one is currently worrying about). So, if your calculator is still working, that may be easier in this situation ;) --- Iain Fogg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Chris, > > Can you walk me through the mods required to do > this? > > Would it be smart enough to "invert" the tax rule > for specific product. > Eg, different products have different tax rates that > are (presumably) > dictated by the tax rule (or rules) that apply to > them. > > Cheers, Iain > > Chris Howe wrote: > > --- Iain Fogg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > >> things with the current implementation, the only > >> hassle being that I > >> have to store all my prices ex-tax - this is > >> slightly painful because my > >> suppliers generally provide inc-tax prices and I > >> have to reach for my > >> calculator :-) > >> > >> Cheers, Iain > >> > >> > > > > Then that should be a simple change to the > purchase > > order services so that you're entering pricing > inc-tax > > and it's storing prices ex-tax + storing an > adjustment > > for tax > > > > > > > > > -- > No virus found in this outgoing message. > Checked by AVG Free Edition. > Version: 7.1.408 / Virus Database: 268.13.3/473 - > Release Date: 12/10/2006 > >
