Re: Local Sales Tax Mod - Support Thread
Thank you for the reply! Somehow missed getting notification email. So module would not support multiple rule matches? Eg if a county in state has a rate of its own I must make a single rule applying county and state for the zip codes in county. The another rule or rules for all other zips in state to just get state tax?

Has anyone seen or built a module to connect to the Washington State Tax API ? http://dor.wa.gov/Content/FindTaxesA...Interface.aspx
Re: Local Sales Tax Mod - Support Thread
Hello I just downloaded this mod and have a question. I have the sales tax rate table by zip code for South Carolina. I see various zip codes consist of 2 or more counties and may have different rates for respective counties. Can this module handle this issue or if not how can I handle it?
thanks
Re: Local Sales Tax Mod - Support Thread
I believe the module searches by zip code for the tax rate so whatever county name it has isn't going to matter. The name of the county is really only there to display for the customer in checkout. As long as you've got the zip code assigned it's proper tax rate, you should be fine.

The site is based in Florida, and has 64 counties with varying tax rates setup based on zip codes. The mode looks at the zip code of the ship too address you enter and does a lookup in the database tables to find the tax rate. The customer only has to enter a valid address, the mod uses that information.
This site does NOT calculate florida sales tax correctly. I put in 32092 for my zip code and it says 6% at checkout. It should add the St Johns County surtax of 0.5% which it did not
Re: Local Sales Tax Mod - Support Thread
Anyone tried this mod on 1.5.5f? I installed 2.5.3a version and it worked fine for tax rate calculation. However, sales tax rate for store pickup is incorrect. It should be based on my store zipcode, but it is actually based on the zipcode from shipping address.
Re: Local Sales Tax Mod - Support Thread
Finally I found a walkaround solution for the previous issue. Here is the link: https://www.zen-cart.com/showthread....Menu-for-1-5-x
By this modification, you can limit this Pickup option to postcodes surrounding your physical store location. I modified the 1.5.5f version storepickup.php, and it worked good. You need to remove your store pickup module over admin page and install it back again. Also "Shipping Zone" option is blank after you install pickup module. You need to change it back to your default zone, otherwise it may not function properly.
I tried to use TaxCloud plug-in, but it looks like its registration process is very complicated.
Re: Local Sales Tax Mod - Support Thread
I tried to installed this mode on 157 with php7.2, unfortunately it doesn't work. It generated warning log like following:
#1 require_once() called at [/public_html/test/includes/autoload_func.php:37]

Any alternatives other than TaxCloud? I need to collect tax based on county or zipcode.
Re: Local Sales Tax Mod - Support Thread
does the file
Code:
includes/init_includes/init_local_sales_taxes_install.php
actually exist in your site?
Re: Local Sales Tax Mod - Support Thread
Thanks for your reply. I re-upload all the files for this plug-in, and it worked on my 157! Thanks for your help!
There is a deprecated warning, and I added the following code to ot_local_sales_taxes.php and it is good now.
public function __construct()
{
// Constructor's functionality here, if you have any.
}
