Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable are in a similar vein. In fact, they share a common feature with payroll in that they deal with 3rd party entities (Receivable -- entities who owe you money; Payable -- entities to whom you owe money; Payroll -- entities who get paid for a salary/wage). That common module of dealing with names/addresses and relationships could be abstracted out of all three modules and made a common service. -- Stephen M Butler, PMP, PSM stephen.m.butle...@gmail.com kg...@arrl.net 253-350-0166 ------------------------------------------- GnuPG Fingerprint: 8A25 9726 D439 758D D846 E5D4 282A 5477 0385 81D8 _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
