This week there were many usability enhancements and improvements with orders, requirements, and fixed asset maintenance.

Accounting

• Fixed bad service definitions for the operations on the FixedAssetStdCostentity (pk fields were defined as optional parameters)): (r 451716)
• Added data model changes and issuance service to issue inventory to a FixedAssetMaint for use as a Part; there is no accounting handled in this but the idea would be to convert the inventory to supplies (r 451821, 452025)
• UI label fixes (r 451986, 452520)
• Removed some unused imports in Java classes. (r 452088)
• Prevent double posting of acctg trans to the ledger (r 452577)
• Added code to xml format all values in the invoice PDF (r 452800)
• Commented out the automatic setting of commission invoices to READY. You can uncomment it in accounting/servicedef/secas.xml (r 453431)
• Fixed problem with percentage item and sales discounts not working (r 453515)
• Fix up the days due for commission invoices, so that if it is not set in Agreement, then dueDate of invoice is also not set. Also fixed a bug where it was always set to 0. (r 453680)
• Company header can now display the taxId of the company in the bill-to address's geo, though this is by default commented out in editInvoice.bsh. (r 453703)

Base and Framework

• updated ofbiz logo (r 451660, 451663)
• Removed not needed ant tasks from the application folder's build file: they were causing the clean-all target to fail. (r 451719)
• New default value feature for complex-alias, useful for making concatenated reports, etc. (r 451767, 451963)
• add a service to get one generic item using the performFind service (r 451904)
• Fix for rendering of numeric values both in ftl templates and in form widget. The problem was that the number of fractional digit used was the default one for the locale (usually 3) and for this reason many numbers were truncated in the screens. This is fixed by setting the maximum number of digits to 10. (r 451937)
• UI label fixes (r 451986, 452520)
• Removed some unused imports in Java classes. (r 452088)
• Created a generic screen that renders a link (implemented by an hidden form) that can be included in other screens: in the form, the screen's requestParameters are stored as hidden fields and so it is very useful to render links for printed output (based on search constraints). (r 452778)
• Set startofbiz.sh and stopofbiz.sh to use -Duser.language=en parameter to force base language to English to avoid some rendering problems (r 452792)
• Added code to xml format all values in the invoice PDF (r 452800)
