janeangmed Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Some of our customers are exempt from paying GST (goods and services tax) because of their profession. Is there a way that I can get the system to recognise this and give them the appropriate total? Also, on the order confirmation and email notification of order, the total tax is still not showing up, although the GST shows up on the invoice in the admin panel. If anyone can help, that would be good. Sarcastic comments about site design are well and good - I'm spending all my time trying to make sure that the commerce back end actually works! pax Jane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-man84 Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 I also need something similar.. Think we have to modify where it pulls out the price.. :-) You might want to have a look at tep_get_tax_rate funciton in catalog/includes/functions/general.php :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-man84 Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 I got it! I needed to display the prices without tax to customers that are not from Norway.. Anyways, heres how I did it. In catalog/includes/functions/general.php: ------------------------------------------ in function tep_add_tax (around line 357), change: if ( (DISPLAY_PRICE_WITH_TAX == 'true') && ($tax > 0) ) { TO if ( (DISPLAY_PRICE_WITH_TAX == 'true') && ($tax > 0) && ($country_id == '160') ) { ------------------------------------------ Maybe you can modify this to your needs? :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
