Benjamin Jugl commented on OFBIZ-10679:
---------------------------------------
Hello [~pierresmits]. We had a discussion on this subject in [#OFBIZ-4160]. I
think that you did not see any benefit in this implementation. What do others
think about it? The opinion of someone with experience in the US market would
be nice.

> Key: OFBIZ-10679
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-10679
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: framework
> Affects Versions: Trunk
> Reporter: Benjamin Jugl
> Priority: Minor
>
> As mentioned in [#OFBIZ-4160] there are different ways to approach
> tax-calculation on shipping-costs.
> While some countries (like the Netherlands) have a fixed price for this,
> others calculate the delivery just like the delivered good (or a weighted
> version, if multiple taxrates are applied to the shipping).
> As I stated:
> {quote}[..]it is advisable to introduce a new ProductCategory "TAX_SHIPPING".
> This could be administered through TAX_AUTHORITY_RATE_PRODUCT for individual
> tax authorities. Then there could be a condition before my newly implemented
> logic, to use this tax rate, if it is found, and if it is not, my logic is
> executed.
