Re: Apply Tax to digital Product

Hi Shrilesh,

Are you entering a shipping address for the order? Even if it's a download,
tax calculations need a location for the customer. Many tax rules apply to
customers in the same jurisdiction as the seller, but do not apply to
exports. OFBiz can only make a decision about what tax to apply once it
knows the location of the customer. Check your logs - there may be a
warning that calculating tax is impossible.

When you say "it is only available to the physical product", I'm not sure
what you mean.

On the demo site, I can create a new product category called "Download",
and I can create a TaxAuthorityCategory and a TaxAuthorityRateProduct entry
for that category. I can create products that belong to that category. When
you enter an order, I don't see how a product that belongs to that category
is fundamentally different to any other.

From what you've said, it seems you can configure a tax rule and it all
seems fine, but that rule is not being applied to an order for the
downloadable or subscription product. Is that right?

Cheers

Paul Foxworthy

Re: Apply Tax to digital Product

Posted by Shrilesh Korgaonkar <sh...@udyogmandir.in>.
*Hi Paul,*

thank you for ur reply Paul I got few ideas around what ur saying
shipping address for the order is not required for a digital product (
DIGITAL_GOOD)

so in that case when a person set shipping address in checkoutoptions page,
it pickups tax manager(as I mean the javascript  ) and then it shows in
final review page under sales taxes part
is this correct?

When I say physical product it means the type FINISHED_GOOD, FINDIG_GOOD

u said "From what you've said, it seems you can configure a tax rule and it
all
seems fine, but that rule is not being applied to an order for the
downloadable or subscription product. Is that right?" - - Yes

Once again thank for ur reply

*Regards,*
*Shrilesh K.*
