This is using version 1.6.0 Okay, I can generate invoices, but it's clunky. I hit the vendor invoice button, and get the appropriate screen showing. I select the correct vendor, hit the tax included button (because as yet, I haven't earned enough money to have a GST registration, and so any tax I pay is purely an expense to me). I fill in Number Desc Qty Unit Amount 1 some description 1 ea $X.xx If I hit post, I always get an error in line 1. If I hit update form, it comes back with a filled in form with space for another entry, but it has magically added GST. So, I hit the tax included button and re-update the form. Now things are filled in correctly and I can post it. On the customer invoice side, when I fill in the form (again, hitting the tax included button) and hit update, it shows another line to add another item to the invoice, but it erases the amount entered and unsets the tax included button. So, re-enter the amount and set the tax included button and re-update the form. Things okay, so I can now post the invoice. It seems like something screwy is going on. Gord |

Gord, How do you expect an accounting program to work for you if you do not set it up correctly. Before you cry wolf and hurl insults, where none are warranted, sit down and figure out how things work. It's one thing to ask for help, it's another to claim *this is weird*, and expect an answer. If you want your taxes treated as an expense then you have to set them up as an expense. Dieter Simader http://www.sql-ledger.org (780) 472-8161 DWS Systems Inc.

Dieter, I do not think Gordon was hurling insults. I think he doesn't understand how to implement the system for his requirements.

Matt, You are correct, Gord does not know how to make it work for him. However, I don't take it lightly if someone does not know why things work in a certain way and renders a *clunky* verdict.

Agreed. Aesthetics aside (and I don't find it particularly clunky), SQL-Ledger is a wonderful package.
