aha ! menarik ni. imho, every software needs learning.
red1, here is the challenge ;p. if he gets to solve it, then you should employ him to work on the payroll module for adempiere, coz it is not trivial. based on the lhdn jadual pcb : http://www.hasil.gov.my/pdf/pdfam/SCHEDULESTD2010.pdf i would like him to do a worksheet, where a person can enter the following options 1. category : single / married spouse not working / married spouse working 2. number of children 3. monthly pay and the worksheet will show how much pcb is supposed to be deducted i believe pakcik google still have no solution for this ;-) now if he can solve it, compare how long it took him to solve it using a spreadsheet, as compared to if you had asked a java programmer to do it in a java app. with a few clicks and using google spreadsheet, your son can even turn his spreadsheet into a web app ;-) On Sun, Mar 13, 2011 at 3:40 PM, red1 <r...@red1.org> wrote: > Raja, fictitous indeed.
