Don't forget future dated transactions. If you accept an order today for work that crosses the change date (e.g. a contracting job) when do you have to start charging the new amount? I was contracting in 1985 when GST came in initially. It was pre-announced well before the details were made public and I had it written into my contract before either party knew the details of when or how much. -- Bruce Clement Home: http://www.clement.co.nz/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/Bruce_Clement Google Buzz: http://www.google.com/profiles/aotearoanz "Before attempting to create something new, it is vital to have a good appreciation of everything that already exists in this field."
