Local Sales Tax Mod - Support Thread

[cscuilla]

Sorry LadyG,

Their is one more thing i may need help with. In version 2 i listed my zips with a space after the semicolon. (33555; 33666).

Now, it seems in version 3 I should leave the space out (33555;33666).

My question is, should i go back into the rates i've entered in version 2 and erase the spaces after the semicolon?

Thank You

Craig

Also, I'm not sure if this is related to my above post, but now, when i get past the shipping to checkout. It lists all my local tax zones before giving the total.

For instance: It lists

Local Tax Rec ID: 1
Tax Name: -

all the way to...

Local Tax Rec ID: 28
Tax Name: -

Then under that list it says...

Tax based on customer shipping zone 190
27 matching tax zones found

Then it finally gives the total, with the correct tax added. Do you know where that list could be coming from?

Thanks

Craig

Sorry for all the posts LadyG. The issue was, that i needed to uninstall and reinstall the order total module after the upgrade.

The list i was refering to disappeared after this. And then i also went into the zips i entered in version 2 and removed the spaces after the semi-colon.

Now I am officially working and upgraded.

Your plug-in has saved me tons of time. As soon as i start making some sales here, i will be sure to donate for your great work.

Also, do you have a mailing list to inform of updates?

Thanks again

Craig

Craig,
The space within the zip codes should not matter, the mod should be able to handle it either way.
The extra data you are seeing is the debugging option.
Go to Modules -> Order Total and look under the settings for the Local Sales Tax Mod, you can turn it off there.

Hi Craig,
Opps! I missed your last post, glad you figured out what was happening.

As for a mailing list, I'm afraid this post is the closest thing I have to one. If you stay subscribed to it any important upgrades or issues will be posted here.

Have a good day!

Versions
ZenCart 1.3.8
Local Sales Tax 2.3

I am charging sales Tax for GA.
Set up New Zone Definition called Georgia
Added Zone of Gerogia with 4% rate

That works and taxes 4% correctly

Added Local Sales Tax and defined every zip code with their tax rates of 1% - 3%
But cannot get the local Sales Tax to show up?

Example of entry in the local tax table:
ID Tax Zone Apply To Look For Tax Rate Tax Description Tax Shipping Tax Class Action

2 postcode 31563 3.0000 Appling true Taxable Goods

Every time I go to edit the Tax Zone drop down has no choices but "Select Zone" So it is blank in the table. Do I need a tax zone set?

I tried shipping and billing address zip of 31563 and set to tax on shipping, then tried billing, then tried store.

Changed the order of the local sales tax module to 299 with tax at 300. Tried swapping them too.

Every time the tax comes up 4% only, just showing the GA state tax zone I set up. It needs to then show 3% for Appling County and be a total of 7%.

I know I am missing something, but I have read and tried all your posts with no luck. Can you point me in the right direction.

My thought is to go into the db and add my Tax Zone of Georgia to all the entries in the table?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks kramergutt

I'm not sure what is happening for you. The only time I get the the zone drop down box on the local sales tax mod to show empty is when I do not select a country from the box above.

So before we can proceed we need to make sure your countries and zones are tied together correctly. Also, because the zone box is filled in via Javascript when a country is select, I wonder if it could possibly be a browser issue?

Well that was it. I did not realize that. Guess some of us don't catch on that quick. So in your debug mode I see it is adding the local sales tax, but it still does not show up on the right for the total calculation. I'd like the customer to be able to see that local sales tax. How can I do that.

Thanks, your module is great by the way!
