[jira] [Commented] (OFBIZ-10679) Regarding national laws when
applying taxes on shipping costs
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-10679?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17054742#comment-17054742 ]
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.
