Re: Looking for the missing taxes

[Hugh Esco <..hidden..>]

At work on a module, LedgerSMB::API and the ->create_new_order method
seems to be working in all respects except that the taxes keep coming
up missing.

Anyone care to jump in and offer what they've learned is welcome to
take a look at: 

svn co https://ledgersmb-oscom.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/ledgersmb-oscom/trunk/LedgerSMB-API

https://sourceforge.net/projects/ledgersmb-oscom/|LedgerSMB-OSCommerce

Anyway, below is my original issue statement related to these missing
taxes.  But now I'm more confused than ever.  I tried creating this
order through the web interface and no tax is added to netamount to
yield amount in the oe table.  

So I set taxaccounts and taxaccounts_1 both to '' in the $fields
hashref I sent and while I don't know why the taxes are not being
assessed or what is happening to them when they are, at least the
result of my script seems consistent with the result of using the
application through the browser.

I'd prefer it if they waited till they were collected before they went
missing, on someone else's watch as it were.  Actually, I'd probably
prefer if they not go missing down some immoral quagmire like my own
countries' deeds, but that is a bit off-topic, here.
