Free Shipping activating at below the set amount

Hi,

 

I have free shipping enabled for orders over ?50.00. If a customer creates an order of value between about ?43.00 and ?50.00 they can still get free shipping by doing the following:

 

Create an order worth say ?45.00. Go to the "checkout" (checkout_shipping.php), the screen shows the correct postage value for that order. Hit continue to go to the credit card details screen, but dont bother entering anything. Hit the "checkout" button again. The checkout_shipping.php page now shows free shipping for an order of value ?45.00.

 

I think it might be that it is adding the tax onto the order again, ie 45.00 + 17.5% tax = 52.88, so over the ?50 limit. If cookies are cleared from the browser and you log back in, all is back to normal again.

 

Free shipping is set only for national orders.

Prices on the site are set to display with tax included.

 

Any ideas anyone?

Does this smell like chloroform to you?

If your prices are inclusive of VAT have you set Tax to False in Admin Panel > Configuration > My Store

 

Sould read like this:

Tax Decimal Places 2 

Display Prices with Tax false

 

Kind Regards,

Prices on the site are set to display with tax included by setting the Admin -> Configuration -> My Store -> Display Prices with Tax to "True".

Found the solution, have a look at this:

 

osCommerce Mailing Lists on Sourceforge

 

I've applied the change to my MS2 system and it works for me. As far as I can see this is a bug in all MS1 and MS2 systems, so if you have "free shipping over X" enabled I think you will want this fix.
