This is not a "for or against" discussion, but rather a "cause and
effect" discussion.



There is a move to get the "Fair Tax Act HR25" passed, eliminating the
federal tax and replacing it with a national sales tax. How much cost
and changes would we (the RPGLE programming world) have to effect if
this change if enacted? Would it be like Y2K, or just some minor
changes.



In our case, the payroll system and our sales system would have to
change. Our payroll system is a bought product, so no changes there for
us, only our vendor. Our sales system is home grown, and would have to
incorporate a new tax field in all programs that deal with sales

calculations. Also some way to summarize and send the tax through the

GL would be required, but nothing huge to overcome at first blush.
