Hello,

I'm pleased to announce the new release of tryton (the complete news
is available at [1]):


Tryton 1.2 is out !

Step by step Tryton is getting more features while sticking with the central
goal of providing a solid and powerful platform for creating enterprise
solutions. This new release comes with some exciting new features. The most
noteworthy are:

* Historical data handling: This feature can be enabled with a simple
attribute on any model. Once activated the kernel transparently
archives every modification made to the records of the model in a
history table. Records are accessed in a standard way by passing a
date in the context to get the record values relevant for that
date. This makes looking up historical data easy. The first module
using this new functionality 'Account Invoice History' is described
below.

* MacOS client (beta): The Tryton client is now available as a native
MacOS application (for MacOS > 10.4).

* Email as attachment functionality for reports: In addition to being
opened directly, each report can also be automatically added as an
attachment to an email. The user's email client is used to open a
Compose Email window with the report as an attachment. The subject,
the recipient and other information are automatically filled in
with respect to the current document.

* Online VAT checking: A new wizard allows the user to automatically
check VAT numbers of parties with an online web service provided by
the European VAT Information Exchange System.

* Integrated sale and purchase order handling. Cancellation of
shipments or of draft invoices can be handled directly from the
corresponding sale or purchase order. This is possible thanks to
the back-propagation of information from the shipment or the
invoice. This allows the sale or purchase manager to re-create
necessary documents or to ignore cancellations.

This release also comes with lots of bug fixes for the server, client and
modules. As well as a split of the Spanish and Colombian translations. As
promised, this version will migrate automatically databases created with Tryton
1.0, except for the completely new tax rule system that need some
parametrization.

Congratulation!

Wouldn't it make sense to think about a web client? Many companies look for
applications running in a web browser to save the effort of deploying a
client, and keeping him up to date

A real client will always provide better behavior and a faster use.
But of course, it is possible to write a web client that will be near
this, but it is a lot of work (you can see
http://code.google.com/p/tryton/wiki/gsoc2009#Ideas).

Other point is that for windows we have a client without installation (you
can share it on the intranet), for linux you can script easily to update
the client and for MacOS, it is also a client without installation (but
you can not share it on the intranet).

I find that it is strange to "reduce" the work of IT by moving the
end-user to a less efficient GUI.

Hello all, one of our partners "wololo0 = Diego Arango" made the following
comparation of tools that could be usefull to select one for the client:
http://wiki.opdevel.com/DiegoArangoOrtiz/QooxdooVSJSext

I suggest that we could make a votation to select one of the tools.

Personally I prefert Qooxdoo.

Regards

You should promote this on the web site :-)
