Hi

One further question on pricing.

The price that is displayed to the customer could or would include a 10%
markup which is ultimately our commission. The markup percentage could
differ based on the product and or product type. Are their pricing rules
that could take care of this and can the price break down be accurately
reflected in the OFBiz accouting module ?

What is the best doc out there that explains accounting as contained in out
of the box OFBiz ?

Cheers

Grant Edwards
