Configuring Taxes for Canadian Sites/Zones

[s_mack]

Nothing like a million variables to make a problem impossible to ascertain!!

You said it :)

I wish you the best of luck resolving your problem. Unfortunately I can't go any further (see PM I sent).

*sigh of relief*
Nothing is wrong with my cart or my tax calculations. Whew.

Stepping away from my panicky sky-is-falling reaction, I took the time to compare the orders as they appear in my admin and the hard copy invoices I have here: the problem is with the Ty Package Tracker module not DISPLAYING the taxes correctly. Maybe it doesn't take into account complex taxing situations? I just installed this mod and it replaces the order screen with its own version. Just thought I'd post in case anyone else has a problem with it.

Steven, can't THANK YOU enough for taking the time to look into this for me. You helped me determine what WASN'T the problem and that was huge.

Off to uninstall and have a stiff drink...

You're very welcome. Good job on figuring it out!

So if I were setting up a store in BC, instead of Ontario....I would set up the PST zone for BC not ontario....correct?? or do i still need to charge pst to ontario?

[s_mack]

You're correct. No PST for Ontario.

That is... until next year, when the HST in Ontario (and probably BC) comes into effect. Presuming its the same as for the Atlantic provinces that already have HST, you must charge and collect it.

How can we possibly help? you haven't posted any details whatsoever.

You obviously do not have everything setup as mentioned, or you've changed some default settings without understanding what they do, or you haven't selected the appropriate tax class in you products

[joudesign]

I have a problem with gst not being added to the order for any orders going out of province. All taxes work fine with orders in province.

All the settings are correct from what I can see.

Any ideas why it's screwed up?
