[Zope-dev] the birth of ZCommerce

[Brad Clements]

With respect to "API" for ZCommerce

At what level are you trying to interface with the accounting system?

1. Query inventory items, price levels by cust type

2. Query/Create customer record
  a. mailto/billto address
  b. ship to address
  c. tax rate at destination
  d. customer status


3. Submit post transaction data (double entry)
  a. credit a/r 
  b. debit sales
  c. credit inventory
  d. debit cost of goods sold


--

I think each one of these "steps" could/should be modularized and 
distinct. Though certainly in the post transaction phase some kind of 
customer number/id needs to be passed in..
