Tax not being added to shipping

Hi,

We are using ex/inc VAT price module to display both prices.

Everything works fine but VAT ( Tax ) is not being applied to postage. I have enable " taxable goods " in postage but it does not work.

VAT for product item shows correct. We have to manually change the postage price to show VAT but customers are not happy about it.

Can someone suggest a fix? Thanks

Re: Tax not being added to shipping

Version 1.3.9h and shipping module is Table rate and Flat Rate.

See the attached picture for more details. Tax should have been added to £6.75 and VAT should be £25.04.

Even when under My store, i set the store prices to show inc VAT, it would change the postage to £7.93 but not add into VAT total.:no:

Re: Tax not being added to shipping

Further to my previous post, i would like to add that " problem is not fixed "

What i have noticed is that when customer places an order online, all the calculations work fine as expected BUT when we add the order manually and then edit the prices using Simple create order module, VAT is not added to shipping charge.

So the issue is with module. How can it be fixed?
