[17.0][FIX] account_avatax_oca: Install on multi-country #444

Hi @dreispt, |

I'm afraid this fix is just a workaround to allow you installing the module. Perhaps the proper solution is to have this config data added though the CoA Template... |

I agree that this is a workaround. The ideal situation would leave you with the module data created on the US company. However, I don't see a way that would cover every scenario (e.g. US company hasn't been created yet, main company is non-US but does sales in US), so I think the best solution may be to allow install, then instruct the user to use the module data as a template and correctly create the data in whatever company they need to. Unfortunately, that's not simple either, as tax groups cannot be created/imported through the UI. |
On install of account_avatax_oca in an environment where the main company is not in the United States, install fails with error "The tax group must have the same country_id as the tax using it.". The default tax is created in the main company, and the country_id is defined in the XML data file, but the tax group computes its country_id from the main company's country, and the SQL constraint error appears. This is true even if the active company is a USA company, and the main company is not active.
