just an update on my initial post about [open source billing systems](http://feh.holsman.net/articles/2006/04/26/open-source-billing-system) a couple of weeks ago.
I installed [opentaps](http://www.opentaps.org/) and [sql-ledger](http://sql-ledger.org/) and had a little play with each.
I found both quite good, and eventually went with sql-ledger because it fitted my environment a bit better.
the biggest problem I found in sql-ledger was having to go to a separate screen to enter in bank charges in the payment, and the UI for entering in foreign payments could use a bit more work to make it usable when you have lots of foreign currency transactions going through.
