Derek,

Can you think about & tell me about how things like payment terms for 
billing is handled? i.e things like 30/60/90 day due dates, etc?

The point is that its relatively easy to add lots to the engine, as
described in these emails.  But they onlyu provide a grouping, and don't
store any other lot-specific data (such as billing terms, discount
rates, etc. for ar/ap type interfaces, or lord-knows what funny business for
inventory, or the accounting method used for depreciation.  We could
store this stuff in kvp's ... )

But I figure you'd have a quick answer.

In other words:  should we (you, I someone) implemnent 'minimal lots'
in the engine, ASAP?
