-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Jon
Thanks for your enlightening comments. OfBiz is a big system to try to learn, and when I find code in one area that does things the way I want, but can't find matching code in other places I expect it, I get worried the code is there but that I'm looking in the wrong place. Your comments reassure me that when I can't find the code I expect, it may well be because it doesn't exist. Yes, tax calculation (specifically GST) is proving very interesting. Currently I'm mainly looking through the code, trying to work out where I should make changes that will display the right (for me!) values in the ecommerce interface, without breaking existing functionality. If I can, I'd like to make the changes general enough that at least some of them can be incorporated into the main code base. I don't need to worry about the accounting side yet, so I'm leaving that area of GST madness until (and if) I really need to deal with it. Thanks for the heads up with order items. I'm just now starting to look at that code properly. Cheers, Anne. Jonathon -- Improov wrote: > Hi Anne, > > Yes, you're right.
