OFBiz Development r489516

41 new commits this week. SVN r 489516 builds and installs successfully. Significant changes:
  1. Re-factoring and improvements to the way billing accounts are handled during checkout and order creation
  2. General improvements and bug fixes
  3. opentaps Financials now supports sales commission invoices, payments, statements, and balances

Accounting
  • combine ListFixedAssetStdCosts and EditFixedAssetStdCost defined in FixedAssetScreens.xml into one screen (r 488562)
  • Added default system currency for fixed asset std costs. (r 488565)
  • additional billing account available balance method (r 488867)
  • refactored billing account worker to produce a getBillingAccountOpenOrders method (r 488878)
  • More chinese translations (r 489139)
  • Fix bad link from invoice overview to product (r 489144)
  • Fixed invoice dropdown to use the invoiceTypeId and InvoiceItemTypeMap to select the available invoiceItemTypes (r 489188, 489229, 489239)
Base and Framework
  • Fixed hardcoded string to POS startup file in GUIAPP component (r 487891)
  • Fix bug where JavaMailContainer is broken for all password not consisting of only lowercase characters (r 488137)
  • Removed log4j.appender.css.DatePattern='.'yyyy-MM-dd-HH-mm'.html' from debug.properties (r 488284)
  • Added valve to support incoming HTTP requests from an SSL Accelerator that are not HTTPS/SSL requests, but that should be treated by the server as secure (r 488748)
Entity Model
  • Add a description field to the subscription entity to be able to have a textfield search on this entity. (r 489236)
Order
  • When a cart is loaded from an existing order, if the ship group is associated to a supplier, then this information is stored in the cart. (r 487780)
  • Added link and event to initialize a cart from an existing order: this implements the ability to clone an order. The link to run it is at the bottom of the "order view" screen. (r 487781)
  • Fixes for the billing account usage during checkout process (r 488588)
  • Clear out rejected payment methods from cart when an order is rejected so they don't get re-authorized. (r 488848)
  • Some minor refactorings to the way the billing account is set in the cart: now it is sufficient to set the billing account id using the setBillingAccount* methods (already available) and it is no more necessary to set the payment method to EXT_BILLACT in the cart. In fact the correct OrderPaymentPreference for the billing account is created by the cart when the order is created (if a billingAccountId is set). So now, if you want to add a billing account to the cart you can simply do this: cart.setBillingAccount(billingAccountId, maxAmount); and you can remove the billing account from the cart with: cart.setBillingAccount(null, 0.0); (r 489337)
  • Cleaned up variable to avoid incorrect information in the order detail payment box when billing account and other methods are both selected. (r 489405)
  • Fixed error messages with accepting returns (r 489476)

  • Set width/height of batch generated shipping labels to 669x724 pixels (r 487794)
