negative amount in cancel order
When we cancel an order, the Amount that gets displayed in Order List page
is surrounded by (), that means its a negative value, but in one of my local
ofbiz instance it displays the negative sign (-) instead of the (), does its
related to some configuration ?
Also is there any business reason to only display the tax as negative amount
? why not the full amount as negative value ? can some one explain ?

Thanks Scott, This is what I wanted to confirm, whether it is intentional or

Hi Abdullah,
I doubt that it is something that is happening on purpose, if you can
find the cause and fix it I'm sure a patch would be most welcome.

Jacques,
Yes the order is cancelled and also the correct amount is put back to the
customer card.
But as it shows the tax amount as negative, the customer might get confused,
as there is no mention of what this negative amount is ?
Also I just wanted to know the reason to display the the tax amount and why
its displayed as negative ?

Let me put this clearly, is there any reason to display the tax amount as
negative on cancelled orders ?

It is not related to any configuration but was a browser issue.
But still I couldn't get the business reason for it ? and also can we
display the amount as 0 in case of cancelled order in ecommerce order
history page, so that the customer doesn't get the impression that the card
is credited or something else.
