    I will gladly fix the requirement, spec and code so that it actualy works, but it will cost you.

        Testing functional specification

        When I write a functional specification for an ABAP program ,I expect
        the programmer to at least test the selection criterea and output criteria,which most of these offshore guys don't. If I only want to select
        a certain range of data I don't expect the report to select the whole range.
        Its my job to test the quality of data as to whether it meets my business requirements.

          aussielong... name rings a bell - did he post on he a while back saying how he couldn't understand how he ended up getting decked every time he went out on the lash? Can't think why.

          Seriously, I think these 2 have been watching too many Gordon Ramsay programs.

                No need to take responsibility if we're inexepensive then?
