Hi,
I have 'taxshipping' set to 'Y', which makes no difference. I can't see
this option referenced anywhere in ShoppingCart.java, which, I think, is
where will need to make the change by adjusting getTotalSalesTax()
Incidentaly, I had to adjust minicart.ftl to display
'getDisplayGrandTotal' as 'getGrandTotal' does not include the VAT

Isn't there an option that makes tax calculations include shipping?
See "Tax Authority" in Accounting module?

Hi,
I'm currently installing an ofbiz system for a UK client. We have
default prices in products without VAT and have managed to display
them with VAT included in the ecommerce application using the
standard configuration features. Currently having an issue with
shipping costs as these get displayed regardless of VAT, which means
to final sales order looks odd/wrong. That is, VAT for line items
included but no VAT for shipping, are there any tips to get round this?
Thanks

Yes I agree, there are no problems with the data model : it's just
great ! And actually yes it's not so hard to do (I was able to do
it order manager ;o). But generalisation (dealing with excluded *or*
included prices with a store parameter) in all parts (not only
order manager) need some more works and *testing*.
Not only UI reviews and changes are needed, some more on how tax
calculation is done on background. Mostly when updating orders or
adding items : adjustments have to be tuned (Shipment and Handling,
Gift Wrap, etc.). At least the way I did it, which is perhaps
not the better way (but it works so far :o)

Just a quick thought on this... I don't think what remains to be
done is too large and risky, unless major design flaws are found
in the current TaxAuthority features that are meant to support VAT.
Of course, how VAT is handle DOES vary a bit from country to
country, so implementers in one country may have a different
experience that those in another.
This stuff has been used as a basis for custom apps and has gone
into production, so chances are like you're saying Jacques that
there are just some UI review and changes that need to be made, like
displaying prices with tax (or because it is a CSR/manager app
with and without tax) in the Order Manager.
(disclosure of hidden agenda: I don't want to say this is too large
or risky because it reduces the chances of someone taking the
plunge and working on it... ;) )

AFAIK nothing more than some cosmetic improvements have been done.
I'm currently workin for an UK client on some VAT improvement
in
order manager UI (dealing with gross prices, not VAT excluded
prices shown to users). Most of the job is done but I'm not sure I
will be able to contribute it back to OFBiz because there is a lot
of intricated customisations. Also it's only a part of the
problem, but the main part I guess. Anyway I have not enough time
yet to contribute it (the client is OK) and if I do I will
have to
generalise it (of course some will prefer to see VAT excluded
prices as it is now). This is something we need in Europe (at
least)
but nobody seems ready to pay the price yet : it's a large and
risky development.

A few months ago there was a discussion about the state of VAT
support in
OfBiz, and as I recall there was a little work to be done. Has
that work
been done?
I ask because we have the opportunity to use OfBiz for a UK
business, and
obviously VAT is important. OfBiz would seem to be a very good
fit to what is
needed, and would cut development time considerably so we would
like to use
it if we can.
