Thanks Sharan!

I'm using the Trunk version from 29th Dec 08. 

I'm not sure of the version#, I downloaded as current and the file isn't on
the archive list.

Cheers,
        Tristan

Subject: Re: GST / VAT posting to GL for reporting and for sales invoices


Hi Tristan

I'm based in NZ so have got a real interest in what you're doing since it
applies here too!

I would say that you should beware of the demo data as far the GL postings
are concerned - as they are not there. For example you will see a demo
invoice but there will be no corresponding GL entries behind it. To get the
real GL entries on the Hotwax demo you will need to create an order from
scratch and push it through the system to the invoicing stage.

I did have a go a few months ago at setting up a draft OFBiz configuration
for NZ and managed to get it configured to include the GST on the Sales
Orders and Invoices. The GL postings were OK too. 

What version of OFBiz are you using? I'd be keen to have a go a doing it
again with the latest version of OFBiz and give you some feedback if you
want. 

Thanks
Sharan
