Local Sales Tax Mod - Support Thread

[lat9]

I did have those changes but I reverted all of those changes to barebones ZC 2.1.0 files. Trying to track down what else could I have changed.

Nope, it's (again) my bad. The current implementation of the encapsulated version "assumes" (falsely, obviously) that the state's base tax-rate is baked into the local sales tax rates.

An update is forthcoming.

While you're at it, there is one additional "old version" file that could be deleted by the upgrader, the admin version of "local_sales_taxes.php". You currently have it as local_sales_tax.php on line 80 of the ScriptedInstaller.php.

I think that the local taxes are not applied for store pickup orders. When notify_order_cart_external_tax_rate_lookup() is called, $taxZoneId is the shipping address zone_id, not the store's zone_id. I do have "Store Pickup Tax Basis" in the local sales tax config set to the zone of the store.

I have posted a possible fix in the repo for this plugin's Issues section.

v3.0.1 of "Local Sales Tax" is now available for download: https://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=422

This release contains changes associated with these GitHub issues:

#5: Include state's base tax-rate in the local sales tax.
#6: Correct previous plugin removal; the base admin tool's name was local_sales_taxes.php.
#8: Incorrect tax-rate charged for storepickup orders.

v3.0.2 of "Local Sales Tax" is now available for download: https://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=422

This version "really" corrects the calculation for storepickup orders (thanks @proseLA for the update).

Before I make a suggestion, the "state" sales tax is supposed to be added into the shipping tax rate, correct?

What I noticed is the regions tax isn't applied or added into the shipping tax rate? I have a way to fix but I wanted to be sure that was intended or not before I push something through.

Some states require tax on shipping, some don't.

Some states require tax on shipping, some don't.

But that's what I mean, my shipping method has the tax class set and it calculates the local sales tax portion... but for some reason the state sales tax isn't added on.

For example, say a shipping method sent to NYC was $1.00. State tax is 4% and local (NYC) tax is 4.875%. I can see that the tax rate of 4.875% is set but for some reason, the state tax isn't. If I disable the local sales tax module, it's the inverse (the state tax of 4% would apply). But it should be both.
