Re: Q re GST and Australia_0000 CoA and AR transaction

["Chris Travers" <..hidden..>]

Is there a bug?  I am not sure.  Probably.  The AR transaction screen shouldn't have (to my knowledge) populated the tax field.

The AR transaction screen is not meant to calculate taxes for you automatically.  THe reason is that most places have rules about what gets taxed and what doesn't which are beyond the data entry capabilities of this screen (we may revisit this in 
1.4).  The accepted workflow is to manually add the tax information into the box.

the invoice modules are far better at this sort of thing.

Are the two transactions identical in _every_ way (except of course
the transaction #)?  That is, same customer, same billable item?

Please include version # of LedgerSMB you are using.
