Re: What do you use to generate invoices on OpenBSD?
OpenBSD has earned a reputation for security conscientiousness on first run. You would want to run your program on OpenBSD for that. As to compliance, it is not unheard of for the program's calculating engine core to be implemented, in, say, Italy, where Ferrari designs and manufactures, and for branch consultancies to custom fit the product to local conditions. > I find the question strange.

Re: What do you use to generate invoices on OpenBSD?
I find the question strange. The program depends on the laws of the country and personal taste. Nothing to do with OpenBSD. I would write a script with tcl (and eventually tk) that access a db (sqlite prefered if there is no big amount data) and generate tex code. Is that really difficult?! It is like a dynamic web page. I wrote my own double-entry accounting program with tcl, tk and sqlite. A delight using it compared with gnucrash. Rod.

Thanks for that insight on using LaTeX (from ports).
Absolutely useful.

Yes.
What do you recommend? If you have
experience in more than one app, why did you chose one over the other?
If you use something open-source on other OS, let me know as well. If
you use some own written app, for generating invoices, I'm also
interested to hear, just to get an idea, which way people decide to go.
I use print/texlive with \documentclass{dinbrief}. KISS.
The textproc/groff port would work just as well, except that i'm
not sure there is an equivalent to the dinbrief class, so one
would have to set dimensions and spacing manually or with private
macros.
Yours,

I believe the OP meant "generate" as in generate automatically, possibly from a database of orders. Of course you can just type it up by hand in any given editor.

That might be overkill for just invoices if you don't need the rest. I had it working on OpenBSD previously but not in ports. It needs quite a few Perl modules imported, but I don't see any obstacles except that manual labor. It uses PostgreSQL. Also uses Apache or Nginx or Perl's Starman server. I'll plug my cause here. :-} I'm far from anything but an amateur porter, so if anyone wants to help either with porting or testing, I'd deeply appreciate it. So would anyone else who might want to run the software. I can test on i386 and amd64. But I do make quite a few mistakes before getting things correct. Chris Bennett

Re: What do you use to generate invoices on OpenBSD?
I don't, but I wonder if there is a WordPress or similar way to do it. That way you have a searchable database plus you can just pull it up on your browser and print it out. Just a thought.

If you have I use nmh to compose an email to my accountant saying something along the lines of "please generate the next invoice for work X at company Y" and a few hours or days later an invoice -- an opaque object with bureaucratic purposes I am more than happy to keep encapsulated in their own domain, which is firmly not mine -- shows up in my inbox. It even gets automatically forwarded to the client! Other email software would also work. Matthew

tbl + troff -ms has always worked for me.

Hi, Do you generate invoices on OpenBSD? What do you recommend? If you have experience in more than one app, why did you chose one over the other? If you use something open-source on other OS, let me know as well. If you use some own written app, for generating invoices, I'm also interested to hear, just to get an idea, which way people decide to go.
