widgets and gizmos

[Daniel Martínez-4]

To native english speakers,

Could someone explain a little what are the meanings of widgets and
gizmos in the demo data?

I am planning to make a version of the data version in Spanish.

Thanks,

Adrian,

I already saw this definitions (which does not mean I understood them :-)

Is there any conceptual difference between gizmos and widgets in the
demo data?

I don't think so.

Hey Everyone,
                       Currently, we have an ability to exclude shipping from calculation of sales tax. This is easily done by setting a 'taxShipping' flag in the TaxAuthorityRateProduct table. There is no way to include/exclude promotion adjustments in calculation of sales tax.
                       I dont know if this is usual or no, but what the need is that tax should be calculated on price after including adjustments like coupons etc.
                       I was going to implement this and before doing so, was wondering if anyone has come across this. Any inputs would be great.


Thanks in advance,

Hi Amit

See here, https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-225

In my opinion tax calculations should always take promotions into account.

Scott

Thanks Scott. Currently, the tax calculations are not taking promotions into account. I am implementing a fix for this by adding a flag 'taxPromotions' and then send one more 'calcTax' service param as 'orderPromotionsAmount' which will be a sum of all the promotion adjustments and will be of negative value. I suppose, the calculated tax will be negative too and hence balance the total sales tax.

Hi Amit

It would be great if you could attach a patch to OFBIZ-225 once you are
done, it would be good to get this fixed

Thanks
Scott
