help with Flat rate shipping


Guest

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

The only shipping method I have set up is Flat rate. it is set up in the following manner:

enable flat shipping - true

shipping cost - $5.00

tax class - none

shipping zone - none

sort order - 0

 

The flat rate shipping is being taxed on checkout. For example

subtotal - 79.95

flat rate - 5

5% tax - 4.25

total - 89.20

 

however, the flat rate should not be taxed and I expect the following results on checkout:

subtotal - 79.95

flat rate - 5

5% tax - 4.00

total - 88.95

 

your help is greatly appreciated

 

thanks

I believe if you go into Admin/modules/order total

 

and make the shipping module a higher number than the tax module, then your cart will only tax the subtotal. It will add in shipping after the tax.

I tried that and got the same results:

Sub-Total: $79.95

5% GST tax rate: $4.25

8% PST: $6.80

Flat Rate (Per Order Handling Fee): $5.00

Total: $96.00

I tried it on my store. If I move the tax above the shipping, then the shipping fee is not taxed. I am sorry I could not help.
