RE: [tax] Request from UBL for Comments
It appears that there is no way to specify the units of a 
line item other than by putting it as text in the description.  So you'd 
have line items such as "description='bushels of beans' quantity='5'", and 
"description='peck of pickled peppers', quantity='1'", rather than a description 
that would have a separate unit of measure (uom), e.g. "beans, quantity 3, 
uom bushel" "peppers, quantity 1, uom peck".  That seems like a surprising 
ommission.  Since that is the first thing I notice in 3 minutes' scanning, 
I assume there may be other surprises in there.

  UBL for Comments

  

  
John,

  
 

  
I would like to 
  add an item the item Review UBL Small Business Subset Invoice to the agenda 
  for tomorrow's meeting.  The SBS Invoice is a subset of the Invoice we 
  have already provided comments on.  It isn't necessary to review these 
  documents before tomorrow's meeting.

  
 

  
This invoice was 
  just approved by the UBL TC this morning.

  
 

  
Regards,

  
Sylvia
