Taxes

[reeldr]

My site is currently up and running, but I noticed that it is charging everyone taxes, rather then just Canadians.

 

Under Tax Zones I added all the Canadian provinces (states) and have it set to charge 6%. And then with each product, I listed them all as a taxable good. Is there something else I need to do??

Thanks, I'll give that a try!

 

I've followed the instructions in that contribution and have everything working here: http://kingwestflowers.com/catalog/.

 

The tax works fine at 7% GST and 8% PST but when I change the 7% to 6% the total tax calculates correctly but the breakdown of GST and PST is wrong.

 

Sale: $100.00

GST: $6.53 (should be: $6.00)

PST: $7.47 (should be : $8.00)

Total: $114.00 Correct

 

There must be somebody who has this working in Canada; the tax went down from 7% to 6% July 1/06.

 

Have delved into the code for hours and am about to give up and try another e-commerce package; can't get this to work.

 

Anybody??

FOUND IT!!

In catalog/includes/classes/order_total.php, lines 69 and 70 had the formulae: 7/15 and 8/15. I changed them to 6/14 and 8/14.
