Accounting

• Fixed TaxAuthorityServices' permissions - changed them from EXAMPLE to ACCOUNTING (r 6111)
• Removed status changes from IN PROCESS to RECEIVED or from READY back to IN PROCESS or CANCELLED. All invoices must now go through a READY status, which means it is approved. Once READY, invoices cannot be CANCELLED. (r 6123)
• New file applications/accounting/config/artihmetic.properties, which defines rounding and precision properties for BigDecimals separately for invoices, orders, finaccts, and sales tax. (r 6130, 6138, 6139)
• New services for tax calculations (r 6136)
• New UtilAccounting class, with methods for working with BigDecimals and for determing types of payments and GL accounts. (r 6137)

Accounting/GL Implementation

• New service to post internal transaction to match GL accounts of invoices and payments, in case they did not match originally (ie, prepayments and deposits)
• Some refactoring of GL services to BigDecimal, but not all done yet.
  

Base and Framework

• Added apache jakarta commons lang 2.1 (r 6112)
• Added missing condition-object element to widget-form.xsd (r 6116)
• New "transaction-timeout" attribute for screen element in screen widget xml (r 6119)
• New entity engine test to test the storing of null and byte values into "BLOB" types. (r 6120, 6132)
• ServiceUtil now uses FastMap instead of HashMap (r 6140)

Entity Model

• SimpleSalesTaxLookup has new fields taxAuthPartyId and taxAuthGlAccountId for GL accounts for sales tax. (r 6110)
• Payment now has a basedOnPaymentId, in case one payment is related to another one. (r 6131)

Order

• When creating quotes, will now copy productStoreId from custRequest to quote. Also, will no longer create quote role of REQ_TAKER, since that is automatically done. (r 6107)
• Fixed bug where shopping cart was looking for "description" instead of "comments" from QuoteItem. (r 6108)
• OrderServices will now populate the taxAuthPartyId and overrideGlAccountId of OrderAdjustments with taxAuthPartyId and taxAuthGlAccountId from SimpleSalesTaxLookup. This helps GL posting later on. (r 6110)
• Removed duplicate link for view/edit delivery schedule on order header. (r 6114)
• QuoteServices for sending a quote pdf now sets a partyId so that the email can be stored (although it's not right now.) (r 6115)
• Changed all JavaScript calls to toggleAll, selectAll, and checkToggle methods to use new methods with explicit form names, rather than implicitly using "selectAllForm" (r 6118)
• Product lookup in request forms now uses LookupProductAndPrice instead of just LookupProduct (r 6121)
• When exploding auto-exploded marketing packages, a default quantity of 1.0 is used if the quantity in ProductAssoc is not specified. Avoids possible null exceptions. (r 6122)
• Re-factored data model for returns, introducing ReturnHeaderType (vendor vs. customer returns), ReturnItemType, ReturnItemTypeMap (maps invoiceItemTypeIds to returnItemTypeIds) (r 6124, 6133)
• Fixed bug where user can't view other orders after creating an order note. (r 6129)
• Return screens now include adjustments in returns. (r 6133, 6134, 6135)

Party

• Party manager's create new customer script also now uses the createPersonAndUserLogin service, instead of encrypting password and storing it directly. (r 6127)

Product

• Product association page now shows the "quantity" products associated from this product. (r 6113)
• Changed all JavaScript calls to toggleAll, selectAll, and checkToggle methods to use new methods with explicit form names, rather than implicitly using "selectAllForm" (r 6118)

Seed Data

• Removed status changes from IN PROCESS to RECEIVED or from READY back to IN PROCESS or CANCELLED. All invoices must now go through a READY status, which means it is approved. Once READY, invoices cannot be CANCELLED. (r 6123)
• New period types seed data for "Sales Quarter" and "Sales Month" (r 6125)

eCommerce

• Fix double encryption of passwords in ecommerce which made it impossible to log back in after you've created an account and password. (r 6126)
