Local Sales Tax Mod (with admin!) for testing

[LadyHLG]

supersnow and anyone else interested,
I have been working on a very simple sales tax total report, it will be a completely separate mod from the local sales tax mod but will work to pull those sales tax totals as well as any zone tax totals you might have.
I will post it here for anyone to test before posting to the downloads.
The mod itself is very simplistic, it basically totals all the different sales taxes from the orders_total table based on a given date range.

I will post again here when the mod is available for testing, which should hopefully be soon.

Sounds great look forward to the mod - your are the best!!!

Will the sales tax report be able to to be printed or exported? Only ask as it would be a dream come true to make sales tax report process for to the state that much easier.

As I said the report is very simplistic. A small 2-column table with the tax name and the total tax. The size of the table will depend on how many different taxes you have set up and how many sales you had for those taxes. If I have the time I will see if I can make a print version, but you many not even need it.
Have a good weekend.

Ok guys,
Here is the simple sales tax summary report mod. As I said previously, this is very simplistic it only gives you totals, but it is at least a place to start.
Please have a look and let me know what you think, I will post it to the downloads after its been tested a while.
The mod is written for Zen 1.3.7 - I have no idea if it will work with other versions, but since it does not overwrite any files it can be easily tested. Just copy the files over to the root of your zen cart maintaining the file structure provided.
This mod will work with or without the Local Sales Tax Mod so it will give you totals for zone and local taxes.

Thats fantastic. I just wish I had the time and patience to learn how to write modules for the admin.

It seems to work great for the total.

Required on my end would be a listing of all orders that charged tax.

How much info about the orders would you need?

I have a question about this Mod
Open the folder called "fullversion". You should see another folder called "catalog" and a file named "LocalSalesTaxv1.1.sql".
Open the catalog folder and copy everything in that folder over to the root directory of your zencart.



I have did all of this and had to go to my data base to install "LocalSalesTaxv1.1.sql" file because you are not able to do it from zen cart Admin. My data table is there, but when you go to

Locations / Taxes
* Countries
* Zones
* Zones Definitions
* Tax Classes
* Tax Rates

there is no Local Sales Taxes to click on to. Any help would be appreciated.

Something is not right with the files you copied over, the data table would not effect the menu options.
A few questions -
What version of zen are you using?
Did you copy over all the files in the catalog folder, but NOT the catalog folder itself (you don't want the catalog folder just what is in it)?
Did you refresh your browser after you copied the files?

The way zen cart is set up, once you copy over the files correctly it should automatically see the new menu option so it has to be a file issue.

Sorry about that. The problem was with me not the Mod. I forgot to change the Admin file to my custom file. I change the Admin folder in my root dir for security reason.

Glad you got things worked out!
