If your comfortable with working in ASP I'd suggest creating a custom report, based on the existing code to give you totals by country. The vast majority of the code you will need is already in place in the existing reports page. Otherwise your left with reporting each country one at a time, which does give a total, but could take quite a while, or using the export to spreadsheet functionality. ]]> Sun, 19 Oct 2008 11:13:42 +0000 https://forum.productcart.com/tax-display-options_topic1685_post7057.html#7057 <![CDATA[Tax Display Options : Thanks for your suggestions, which...]]> https://forum.productcart.com/tax-display-options_topic1685_post7056.html#7056 Author: bodyexposed

Thanks for your suggestions, which make good sense, but I'm hoping not to have to do the spreadsheet approach nor manual addition - that's what the computer is here for! It must be reasonably straightforward to get the system to analyse the sales data and cross-reference the pcVATcountries table to obtain a sales total for these countries.]]> Sun, 19 Oct 2008 09:18:54 +0000 https://forum.productcart.com/tax-display-options_topic1685_post7056.html#7056 <![CDATA[Tax Display Options : Hi, I don&#039;t have any stores...]]> https://forum.productcart.com/tax-display-options_topic1685_post7055.html#7055 Author: Hamish

Hi,
  I don't have any stores that export. However, the info is available. In "Reports > View Sales Reports" you can filter by country to get individual sales reports for each country, including sales & VAT totals. Alternatively you can do a custom data export to get the figures you want into a spreadsheet and then total them by country.

Hamish - have you found a way to extract the total EU sales from your data, as required for the Customs & Excise's EU Sales List form? Since the store knows about the EU countries, this information must be buried in the system somewhere! I can't find any reference to creating such a report in the documentation.]]> Sun, 19 Oct 2008 08:04:54 +0000 https://forum.productcart.com/tax-display-options_topic1685_post7054.html#7054 <![CDATA[Tax Display Options : Enter prices VAT included.

Enter prices VAT included.

The store will include VAT for anyone in the store’s countryregardless of being in EU. So in your case everyone in AU will be charged VAT.

It will also include VAT for anyone on the list of EU member states.  Fromthe VAT settings page you can edit the list of EU states to be empty if youonly want to charge VAT in your country.

VAT is removed for everyone else.

You cannot currently distinguish between business customers andremove VAT for them.  However, in v3.5 you will be able to capture the VATID and/or an ID number (such as TFN or SSN).

Yes,
  The file is includes/languages.asp
There are several  references to  VAT in the file.
I would also advise reading the user guide - one thing to note is that when you put prices in to the admin pages you put in the price INCLUDING tax. Not sure if this is  how  your prices are currently entered as I've not built a non UK store.


Hmm - I just noticed :-
"english_orderverify_42", "This purchase is outside of the European Union.  Total VAT excluded from this order:  "

Looking at the code there is a check to see if the country is flagged as an "EU member State" - That will need looking  into to see if you can just "fake it" for AUS to be an EU state - or whether you will need changes to the asp code.
Also, it's important to establish that, as far as the differences in the way ProductCart handles "sales tax" differs from VAT, it matches your GST.

Yes, I have switched on the VAT and it is much the same as GST.
 
So all I need to accomplish this is to have "GST" displayed instead of "VAT" to my customers, and if it can show including tax to retail customers and excluding tax to wholesale customers, thats a bonus.
 
So this "Language file" is what I need to modify?

With VAT it's common, if not standard, practice to display prices inclusive of VAT to retail customers and exclusive of VAT to business customers.  ]]> Wed, 04 Jun 2008 19:45:28 +0000 https://forum.productcart.com/tax-display-options_topic1685_post5389.html#5389 <![CDATA[Tax Display Options : It sounds like you want this handled...]]> https://forum.productcart.com/tax-display-options_topic1685_post5387.html#5387 Author: Hamish

It sounds like you want this handled like VAT (Value Added TAX) is managed in the UK & EU ??

With VAT there is an option to display prices showing the amount of the price that is TAX (VAT) and the price without VAT.

Take a look at the user guide for VAT.
 
If the handling of AUS GST is the same then you can switch on the VAT & set the rate as appropriate  & rework the Language file to  meet your needs.
If that IS the case then please let Early Impact know as this would be useful in their documentation.

If it isn't the case then the VAT references in the PC files should make it straight forward to work out where you will need custom code added  to display prices as you wish.

How can I display the tax or include the tax in the display price. Or display that the price is excluding GST.
 
We have 10% GST in Australia, I have setup the tax by country, but it only mensions tax once you get to the payment in the checkout.
 
Grant.
