[GNC] Invoice tax rouding issue in 2.x

2018-05-22 Thread Matthew Pounsett
I've got an off-by-a-cent error on an invoice due to the way taxes are calculated. GnuCash (2.6.21) is calculating the tax on each individual taxable item, then summing that up, and adding that value to the subtotal. This causes an error because each individual tax calculation is rounded prior to

Randy, The good news is that your notes are probably still there. But you did find a bug. I was using sqlite3 before the 3.x jump and I’ve been testing it back and forth with XML but there are still some show stoppers for me. (this would be a new one on the list) So I had an sqlite3 copy of
