- uc_recurring doesn't create a new order when it charges customers, which is a problem if you're selling subscriptions for a physical product (because it doesn't integrate with the uc_shipping workflow).
Good to see someone agrees with my thoughts - http://www.ubercart.org/forum/ideas_and_suggestions/10133/uc_recurring_t...
I have already created a patch to prove to myself how much better everything would be if a recurring payment created a new order on renewal - at the moment it only works on the test_gateway - http://drupal.org/node/426466
This patch doesn't need to change uc_roles to get uc_recurring playing nice with it, just make a new order when a payment is renewed and the conditional actions takes care of it (I am using the 6.x-2.x series)
