I have a test store and database set up, so I backed everything up and tried to install v2.5 on ZenCart v1.5. Local Sales Tax shows up under the Order Total module, but it does not show up under the Locations/Taxes tab. Should I assume that v2.5 does NOT work with ZenCart 1.5?
Here's the 2012 Florida discretionary tax rates by zipcode. Changes for 2012:
Alachua is now 6%, so the entire 6.25% bracket can be deleted! Go Gators!!
Liberty changed from 7% to 7.5%
Martin and Seminole county dropped to 6%
I'm about to pull my hair out! I just installed this mod and cannot get it to calculate properly. I have attached a screenshot of my checkout screen with the debug option enables. The screenshot explains it all... the local tax is not being applied to shipping (yes, the tax rate option "Apply this tax to shipping charges?" is set to True) AND my total is completely wrong. I have no idea where its getting that number from.
ANY HELP is appreciated. I really need this mod to work.
Thanks!http://www2.picturepush.com/photo/a/...mg/7419555.jpg
An update to my situation.... I finally got the order total to display correctly. it is actually adding in the shipping tax now and including it in the order total but it is still not reflected on the local tax rate line in checkout... that line only displays the tax of the subtotal.Quote:

$order->info['shipping_tax'] += $shipping_tax;
and removed the "+" sign from the last line so it reads as:
i hope that + sign wasnt important... all i know is that removing it made my order total correct.Code:$order->info['shipping_tax'] = $shipping_tax;
unfortunately, i still cant figure out how to get the shipping tax to be reflected in the local tax rate.
Does anyone know when and if a new mod version will come out supporting zen cart 1.5? I was just going to use taxcloud but apparently that isn't going to work on 1.5 until they update their dev. packages yet as well... bummer zen cart
FYI, there is an updated version of TaxCloud that works with v1.5.

Florida has 67 Counties, Which have various tax rates. Tax is calcualted based on the total amount of the order including shipping. Tax is to be determined and reported based on the county it is delivered to. Sales Tax Module Version 1.39, Zen Cart 1.39. I created entries for each county and associated with each county the coreesponding zip codes and tax rates. I have set the Shipping to true.
I am having trouble with the results. It seems to want to calculate tax on every county after the first correct one.The example below tax should be calcualted at 6%. In addition sales tax is not being calcualted on the Shipping.
Do You have any thought?

I am new to Zen Cart, I came to it based on the need to find a local sales tax solution, which brought me here. I've installed zen cart 1.5 and attempted to install this local sales tax mod, but at the point where I'm uploading the sql file, I get a 'failed' error message at the top and nothing else.
Does this not work with 1.5? If not, will it sometime soon?
I appreciate anyone's time to respond.
