Better Together Contribution Support Thread

KSoup, I'm not sure what you're asking here. You can change the sort order, but the discounting modules don't know about each other, so discounts are cumulative.

Thanks!! That answered my question... we just have to make sure a coupon doesn't include an item that may be discounted by better together. :)

Your time is appreciated.

Hi Scott,

I seem to be in a minority with regards to this not adding up properly so I am sure it is something I am doing wrong.

When the cart doesn't include the better together discount it adds up correctly, when it does include a BT discount the VAT is wrong?

The settings:
Include Tax: True
Re-calculate Tax: None

Using $this->add_cat_to_cat(67, 68, "%", 20);

The cart prices are displayed including VAT. Site is UK (if that makes a difference)

So have I missed something obvious?

[swguy]

With these settings, you're grossing up the discount to include the VAT. The VAT is not recomputed.

But when I set Re-calculate Tax to standard this happens:

Sub-Total: £9,156.93

Table Rate (Best Way): £6.46

Better Together Discount: -£13.20

VAT: £1,363.80 Should be £1362.79

Total: £9,156.93 Should be £9150.19

Sit tight - tax computation changes coming in 1.3.8; I will align my software to these algorithms which were coded by a genuine UK native. (Thank you, Wilt!)

[swguy]

An issue has been reported running Better Together against Zen Cart 1.3.8.

I will release a new version later on; for now, simply replace

includes/modules/order_total/ot_better_together.php

with this file. This is only required for 1.3.8.

Thanks to Rufus for reporting this problem.

Hi Scott,

Have these changes now been implemented in 1.38 - if so I will move up from 1.37

Best regards
