TaxWare status of 9.04

Does anyone actively use TaxWare on 9.04? If so, are you satisfied with it? Since I live in WA state, I would have to charge deistination tax to customers. Can TaxWare properly support WA state? There are 350 different sales tax jurisdictions in WA state, each requiring monthly/quarterly report

Not intending to start a war, but I evaluated OpenTaps (both the older version and the new 1.4 versions) and what I immediately noticed was it's huge memory footprint. Now I've worked with and deployed java applications for many years, and have seen all kinds of problems, but the most insidious ar

Multiple DropShippers and Shipping Options

I'm trying to understand how this works. As far as I can tell, shipping seems to be tied to the store. However, if the store has multiple suppliers (who are dropshippers), each having potentially different options for shipping (fedex/ups/etc), is it possible to present to the shopper the shipping

That's pretty dog slow. You probably need to tune mysql. Ofbiz has a lot of tables. Here is what I was using: # # * Fine Tuning # key_buffer = 64M max_allowed_packet = 640M thread_stack= 192K thread_cache_size = 8 max_connections= 256 table_cache

Tax bug --or-- The best way to override a single java file.

I found an odd behavior with the tax handling in ofbiz. If you need to charge local sales tax based on ZIP-4 (like in WA state), I found the following: 1) User enters exact ZIP-4 zip code (which is in ofbiz), local sales tax is charged correctly. 2) User just enters ZIP (which is in ofbiz), local
