Sales Tax / VAT

[geoffsmith]

Hi,



Is there any transaction log that contains the VAT or sales tax that was paid? I would like to create a monthly report to work out how much tax I need to pay. For some reason Google checkout doesn't have this kind of information and it also doesn't seem to be in the transaction log.



Any ideas what I can do?



Thanks so much in advance,



Geoff

Currently, we do not display transaction log containing the VAT or sales tax. However, its in our to-do list.

Hi,



Has this been implemented yet or is it still on a 'to do' list?

Tax applied to each order is now displayed in your E-junkie Seller Admin > View/Download Transaction Log.

Great, thanks.

Hi,



I've now set up the shopping facility for my client and several transactions have been made, but there is no record of the VAT amount in the transaction log.



Am I missing something or have I incorrectly set something up?



Thanks,

VAT should be reported in the Tax column in your Seller Admin > View/Download Transaction Log. If you are seeing nothing or 0.00 reported in that column after you configure Cart Sales Tax & VAT Settings, make sure each product's settings also have Sales Tax/VAT enabled if you want them to add VAT.

Ok great, thanks. One other thing, if that's ok.



If I enable the 'Sales Tax/VAT' on the first page of the product description, will this add an additional 15% to the price of the product?



So for instance, if I have a product that is entered as £10 in the variants section, when I add this to my shopping cart, will it show up as £11.50 or £10.00 and additional £1.50 VAT or would it actually deduct the correct amount from the £10 total so that the VAT would never actually be visible to the buyer, only to ourselves in our admin area?



Hope that makes sense.



Thanks,

Sales Tax and VAT gets added to the order as a separate line-item in the cart. It does not affect the price shown for any individual product.
