I looked at the trial. The core they offer has a number of modules you can use for free/self hosted/open source.  The accounting packages require a subscription/paid service.   On Mon, 2024-03-11 at 11:56 -0500, Adrien Monteleone wrote: > I'm not sure if it is still entirely open source, but it

I'm not sure if it is still entirely open source, but it started that way. I think they've added on features that are closed. (some may simply be built with Odoo itself) The base package is still available as far as I'm aware, and it is pretty powerful, but likely overkill for most small

It may not wholly be a GNC problem, but a vendor software problem. Having entered numerous bills from Amazon and Costco recently, there have been a few cases where the sales tax did not match. This required an additional line item to adjust the sales tax to make the totals match. Entering
