> We need some pov on the following points:
> 1/ The DB field/variables names
> Colin suggested not to truncate the names. But, for instance, rrp_it
> would become recommended_retail_price_including_tax, not convenient.
> Any thought?
> 2/ Rounding
> I suggest to add a new pref to define the decimal to get for price
> calculation. So we need to change all the price DB fields to something
> like decimal(13,4).
> Does it make sense for everyone?
> 3/ Unified the "vat", "gst" and "tax" terms into "tax". Which is more generic.
>
> Please express yourself if you disagree.
