Shipping being taxed twice!

[cedarcreek]

Hi!

 

My store has MVS and CCGV(trad) installed. For some reason, the shipping is being taxed twice. Here's a screenshot of an order total to see what I mean:

 

 

So, $2.95 + $5.00 * 5.5% = .44. Then, $5.00 * .055 = .275 . Add them together to get .71 tax.

 

Any idea why this is happening? In what PHP page is the tax calculated and displayed? I wonder if something from CCGV didn't make that calculation loop twice (but only on the shipping the second time around...).

 

Thanks for your help, this is really frustrating! Let me know if you want more info!

Hmm, can't seem to edit my post anymore...but this is the calculation:

 

So, $2.95 + $5.00 * 5.5% = .44. Then, $5.00 * .055 = .28 . Add them together to get .72 tax.

Bump. Does anyone need more info, or is this just too wacky to tackle?

 

Thanks

go to your osc admin->modules->shipping (the shipping module in use) edit it under the tax class select "none" and then retry. If it shows the amount correctly its possible you have some other code in checkout_confirmation or in another class used in that script that re-calculates the tax based on the total amount.

YES! That worked. It now shows the correct amount of tax. Does anyone know if there is a "common" place in the checkout process where this could be happening, and what CCGV(trad) could have done to change it?

 

Thank you!

Ok I believe if you ask the question now in the support thread of the ccgv(trad) they should be able to help on this with the new information you have.
