How do I change a customer's default currency?
You cannot change the currency once you have created a transaction for the customer. If you were to be able to change its currency then it could have a negative impact on transactions— such as profits and margins etc. However, as a work-around you can delete that customer and then create a new customer with the revised currency.
Can I create a shipment from an invoice?
No. You can create a shipment from the sales order.

How are the Payment Terms calculated?
The Payment terms are calculated from the Invoice Date and not the Order Created Date.
How are Sales Order totals calculated?
Sales Orders are computed for a total amount on line by line basis. Meaning;
-
We calculate and round off the discount, tax, and subtotal value of each and every product line first and then sum them all up to compute the final transaction sub-total.
-
We use round-up methodology but we also limit the decimal places from 4 to 2 on each price revision i.e after adding the discount and then tax on each sale/purchase order line.
UnitPrice = RoundTo4Dp (InclusiveUnitPrice / (1 + taxRate)
DiscountedUnitPrice = RoundTo4Dp (ExclusiveUnitPrice * (1 - DiscountRate))
LineTotal = RoundTo2Dp (ExclusiveDiscountedUnitPrice * Quantity)
LineTax = RoundTo2Dp (ExclusiveLineTotal * TaxRate)
TaxTotal = SUM(all LineTaxes)
SubTotal = SUM(all ExclusiveLineTotals)
Total = TaxTotal + SubTotal
