Sales tax problem

Post by jrjr »

I recently added sales tax to my products. The way it is working is the tax is deducted from the item price, the tax is added back in, and the item price is achieved as a total price.
The way it is now -
(item price - sales tax) + sales tax = total price

I want the sales tax to be added to the item price and increase the total price.
It should work this way instead -
item price + sales tax = total price.

What do I need to change?

in phoca cart configuration you need to configure how to calculate the price.
so the price on a product you need to tell phoca cart if its incl. or excl tax.

Ahhh yes, thank you. Didn't think to look under options. Found it!
Do you have an idea how to hide the sales tax amount on an item until checkout? It is displayed in item view at the moment. I don't seem to find a config for that.

Do you want to display the products in de shop with price including tax.
On checkout page show product price without tax, tax amount and total amount?

I only want the sales tax to be calculated and displayed in checkout. No other places. All other places only item price is visible.

Hi, the tax can be disablec completely, but then it is completely hidden in all parts.

So the easiest way to hide other parts like tax or netto price is to use CSS and standard "display: none" parameter. All parts have the CSS classes so this can be the simplest and fastest way.

I really don't know what you mean.... All parts have the CSS classes? Where do I find these?

Each price item (netto, brutto, tax) has own CSS class, so you can hide only the item you want, e.g. the tax and netto part.

Do you have the link to the page, where you want to hide the tax?

Here's a link. I would like tax to only appear at checkout. Seems bothersome to remind buyers they have to pay tax until such time as they have to.

Hi,

If you mean not to show the text of: Price (excl. tax) plus the price, you could try to hide it with foll. CSS Code:
.ph-price-txt.ph-price-netto-txt.ph-standard-txt {
display: none;
}
.ph-price-netto.ph-standard {
display: none;
}
Kind regards
Christine
