VAT summary in checkout

[crazycucumber]

hello all , just setting up a shop , and cant seem to get the VAT the way I want it !

First off a real minor thing , if I have a product for net £10 i would like it to say £11.75 inc VAT on the store . I have done this before , but can't remember where to set it.

then in the checkout at the moment it looks like this. :-


Sub-Total: £11.75

Flat Rate (Best Way): £4.95

VAT 17.5%: £1.75

TOTAL : £16.70


Is there an easy way to have it say Sub Total £10 , so the figures add up ?

Thanks.

I also have this problem, it is annoying on the invoices also. You can turn off the taxes on the site in the admin area (configuration :: my store :: Display Prices with Tax), this does repair the calculation, but this doesn't realy help, since you probably want to include tax on the site instead of showing it without it.

I too would like a solution to this. Checkout summary says:

Items     11.75
Shipping  11.75
VAT        3.50
Total     23.50

Which is all very confusing! At the very least I would like

[FONT="Courier New"]Which includes VAT of 3.50[/FONT]

Any ideas anyone?

Probably here ... includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE/shopping_cart.php around line 19.

If not, use admin>tools>developer toolkit to locate the occurrences of VAT in the language files and edit the relevant ones.

No, that does not work for me. Sorry, it only has the Total line.

define('SUB_TITLE_SUB_TOTAL', 'Sub-Total:');
define('SUB_TITLE_TOTAL', 'Total:'); 

So I guess the VAT comes from the name of the tax class I am using? Is tyhis the same for others? In which case we need to change how the total for each line is calculated. Ie not to include VAT so it adds up in a sensible fashion.

Either that or we need to tweak the file that does the output (using templates of course!) to add the extra text we need. I have a spare hour (amazing!) so i'll try and find out where that is.

Cheers, D.
