I would tend to agree with Jon in this respect. Whilst I think the idea of OACS ledgers and an integrated eCommerce is a great idea, most of our clients are existing bricks and mortor retailers who want to add eCommerce to their existing line-up. They tend to have substantial ledger systems already in place and only require feeds to and from the eCommerce system.

How closely coupled is the Shopping Basket (and therefore ec G2) to the accounts packages? Would it be possible to make the new ec standalone if required? Perhaps we could create an eCommerce Lite from the new package once its closer to completion?
