British Columbia BC users - how are you dealing with the PST Exemption for Youth Products?

Hi BC Community,
Reaching out to everyone and anyone to help with this. Has anyone had any luck (in British Columbia) dealing with PST Exemption for Youth product? More specifically if a product has a full tax item (12%) and a Youth Exempt Item (5%) in the cart, at the same time.
As you know, if you add to British Columbia Tax Codes (BC-12% and BC-5%) and you have product in your cart, like the above mentioned - the Destination State overrides any product level Tax Codes.
Looking for some help with this one.
Thanks,
Aaron

Canadian BC users, how are you dealing with HST, GST and PST/QST?

Hi, I'm new here and I've been building my first BC eCommerce site for a client for almost a year. It's a business to business site, dealing with about 5000 SKUs. It's currently in trial mode, and we're about to go live with it. I have a problem with taxes I hoped I'd be able to sort out, but haven't found a solution.
My client's head office is in Ontario and they sell from there, and also from Quebec, though online sales will be limited from Ontario for now. Ontario, like B.C., where I am, and a number of other provinces have HST. The remaining provinces have GST and PST/QST, except Alberta, which only has GST. My client sells thoughout Canada, and also to the U.S.
Scenario 1) When one sells from an HST province to a customer in another HST province, the seller must collect and remit the HST for the buyer's province. For example, I work from B.C. with 12% HST, and my client has 13% HST in Ontario. I have to invoice them for my services, collecting and remitting 13% HST.
Scenario 2) When one sells from any province to a customer in a non-HST province other than Quebec, the seller charges GST and is encouraged, and depending on the province they are selling to, required, to register for that province's PST and collect and remit that tax as well. Otherwise the customer is required to self-assess the PST on the purchase.
Scenario 3) When one sells from any province to a customer in Quebec, they must apply the GST to the purchase, and then apply the QST (Quebec Sales Tax) to that total. Again, out of province sellers are expected to collect and remit the QST.
Scenario 1 is fine. Currently I've set up all HST provinces with their corresponding rate.
Scenario 2 is problematic from a legal taxation standpoint. I've set up all GST+PST provinces and Quebec with 5% GST only. This will not be acceptable to my client as their sales volumes are quite high and they have to remit other province's PST.
Scenario 3 seems impossible on BC, but will become a lesser problem until January 2013, when Quebec changes to Scenario 2 (i.e. the QST will no longer piggy-back the GST but will be raised so there is no change to the total tax)
Further, most businesses will want to see the GST and PST appear separately on the invoice, not calculated together as seems to be the case now.
Has anyone managed to set up GST and PST/QST in the system, so both taxes appear in the cart/checkout process, and separately on the invoice?
Thanks for any assistance!

This might require the discussion to move to the advanced code development section, but I'll post it here first anyway.
So after about 2 weeks, I'm not sure there's a solution to this. I've tried a variety of JavaScript and JQuery approaches to do a show/hide of the appropriate tag based on the province chosen in the {tag_shippingoptions} drop down. The cleanest way was with JQuery and I got it to work outside of Business Catalyst, but not when implemented in my cart.
The problems seems to be threefold.
1. The onchange of the "shipping state" dropdown calls ApplyTaxRate() in an unmodifiable back-end .js file. If I try to have local JS or JQ work on the same function call to do my show/hide, not only does the show/hide not work, but it breaks communication with the back-end .js so no taxes get calculated/updated.
2. If I create my own shipping menus calling the same functions (acutally just copy/pasted the inspected HTML), the taxes update OK, but the menu selections don't persist, AND if I then inject my show/hide, the show/hide doesn't work and all the functionality of the ApplyTaxRate function breaks.
3. If I try to call an additional function for the show/hide, from the onchange of my own menu, the ApplyTaxRate function works, but the additional fucntion doesn't work as it does outside of BC.
Here is my partial code. Any help?
<div class="shippingStateDiv"><span id="shippingStateSpan">Destination State<br />
            </span><select onchange="ApplyTaxRate(this.value,4638834,1,1,332304);taxDisplay(this.value);" class="shippingDropDown" id="shippingState" name="shippingState">

How are you dealing with Comptia CEUs? Do it, or let expire?

Helps, I think most places I think if you have a few years of experience these things kind of become meaningless in many cases it seems. I think the certs are more get your foot in the door or if maybe you're dealing with gov't, etc that may have some mandated need for these. I think at some point the justification of certs lessens.
In some cases though even experiencecan be useless though (although most prefer it over certs). I knew a person that was in I.T since the 90s, started working on newer systems with SATA, etc, mobile stuff. He would do all kinds of stupid crap took pliers to disconnect SATA cables ripped the connector off HDD, had no idea how user profiles worked so would just delete them to fix outlook, lost people's docs, etc at least once. Eventuallyhe was demoted, they tried to get him to do A+ as refresher, or something...

I was just looking at this, I took some more specialized security classes this summer. They said this should count for Comptia CEUs. I was kind of always under the impression you just somehow submitted these things, or your experience and something to verify the experience. I looked on the site and it looks like they also want like $50 just for you to add them. Like $300 for the cert, and then you want like $50 a year for CEU fee that seems a bit ridiculous to me.
If I wasn't looking for a job and had more experience I'd say forget it let it expire. I don't see why people with any real experience level would even bother dealing with this unless some odd reason it was mandatory at work, etc. I honestly think Comptia is kind of shooting themselves in the foot doing this. I suppose if it's something to do with like CEU processing, etc...

Hyperlinks in cells, how do you deal with it?

I've got the hyperlinks palette open (Windows menu / Interactive / Hyperlinks)
Selecting a cell (or a table), that I would like to be clickable in a PDF, disables the hyperlinks address text field:
Obviously hyperlinks from cells are not supported.
How do you deal with it? Do you put empty textboxed on top of each cell that should be clickable?
Thanks,
Andreas

@Andreas – to choose buttons over text based hyperlinks would mean you can define the area that is responsive like you want (the size is the size of the button) and you could design different button states in different ways (color, images, what not…).
For the scripter in you: Hyperlink objects have no geometric bounds, Button objects have…
Just an idea:
Imagine a script that is scanning all cells of a selected table and if there are hyperlinks detected uses position, width and height of that cell to generate a button just on top of the cell (it could be well on a different layer above) using the information the hyperlink provides. Every time the table is changed by the user and the script is fired again, the old buttons are removed and new buttons will be built…
If there are more hyperlinks than one in a specific cell, the buttons will be built around the area the hyperlinked text will occupy…

The EventSystem sub system is suppressing duplicate event log entries for a duration of 86400 seconds. The suppression timeout can be controlled by a REG_DWORD value named SuppressDuplicateDuration under the following registry key: HKLM\Software\Microsoft\EventSystem\EventLog.

hi do the following
1. In Search programs and files (Windows 7) area, type in regedit, and press Enter.
2. If prompted click yes,
3. expand the following HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
4. click the sid that related to your admin profile (if you not sure, click each sid and in turn look to the right hand side of registry editor it will show who that sid is related to one of the registry files should hae in description localhost\admin or
something similair)
5. right click the sid and press delete.
6. restart your machine and log back on with the admin account, this will then rebuild the admin profile... dont worry when it loads and none of your personal settings are saved or files or folders... go to c:\users
in here you will see two folders for the admin account, one will be just admin and the other most likely admin.localhost
i cant remember which one is which but just check both, one will still have all your files and folders in it.
i suggest making a backup of your data before doing this incase something does go wrong, but ive had this happen many times in a domain enviorment and has worked for me everytime.

How you deal with the situation if the vendor/supplier is also a customer ?

Dear All,
Could you please help me with the idea on how to deal with the suppliers/vendors who also are customers to you in MM?
Thanks in advance,
Ranjan

It depends what you are intentions are..
However
1. Create a customer master record for that vendor that is also a customer.
2. Enter Vendor number in Vendor field in control data-customer master record.
3. Enter customer number in Customer field in Control data- vendor master record
Finally, Check "Clrg with vend." field or "Clrg with cust." field

How do you deal with separate shifts/phones/lines/etc?

I'm not entirely sure of the exact question i'm trying to ask, but essentially how do you handle phone/Agent logins where the agents are not at dedicated desks? Meaning, they may not sit at the same location every day, or there may be other shifts that sit at that location when they're gone.
What do you do with their personal extensions
What do you do with the IPCC Extension
Maybe i'm just trying to overthink this and it's simpler than i think.
What does everyone else do?
JM

Hi
Yes, they would log into the phone and then the CAD software seperately.
A seperate specific extension for IPCC is optional; lots of my customers just have a single, personal extension that doubles as their IPCC extension without any problems.
The only mandatory bits are that each agent must have a unique, non shared extension that is set on their 'end user' page as their IPCC Extension.
So
- the physical phones would have non-user-specific 'logged out' numbers
- each user would have an EM profile that has a unique extension (and optional personal extension if you prefer)
- each user would have that unique/ipcc extension set as the IPCC extension on their user config
- they log on to the phone, and their extension(s) appear on the phone in place of the 'logged out' number
- they can then log into the Agent software

How Oracle to deal with the data lose?-----QNo.104

In incomplete recovery,some data will be lost. How Oracle to deal with it?
For example, at 9:00am, you find that it is a mistake to drop a user(you dropped it at 8:30am). But other users' transactions are in progress. A lot of data is input between 8:30 and 9:00. If decide to make a incomplete recovery, does this means all the data input between 8:30 and 9:00 will be lost?

For example, at 9:00am, you find that it is a mistake to drop a user(you dropped it at 8:30am. But the transactions are in progress. To make you clear, you can't drop the user while session connected to this schema.
I dont think that you would loose any data.
The other workaround for this issue would be,
I would clone this on other server just before the user dropped, take the export and then import the user in the production.
Is this satisfy your question?

How big a deal is the shared memory for video editing

Hi,
It looks like the portable Mac I have been waiting for has been released. The one thing that I am wondering about is the shared video? memory. How big a deal is it?
It looks like it should not be an issue with iMovie. How about FCE?
With the Macbook at $1,300 and the entry level MBP at $2,000, $700 is a lot to me- budget and otherwise- Especially since I will add a gig of ram, and the 3 year apple protection plan.

Hi There,
I use iMovie most of the time for around an hour project and went back and forth with iSlick FX, iTunes, garage band and iDVD, and I find my MAcBook serve me well (2.0 Ghz, 2 GB), and use external LCD for wider view editing area.
The chipset is actually allowed to use up to 224 mb of shared memory (with based 80 mb on os X) and the bigger matched memory you install, the more flexibility for that graphic chipset to allocate shared memory.
The only time my project getting choppy is when I select show waveform for entire clip in my project area. That is when the chipset is lack power to play it real time.
But if you are serious about getting editing and planning to upgrade to Final cut (express or pro) later, MacBook Pro is a better investment and bigger screen too.
Good Luck
