sales tax included twice in shopping cart
Hello,
In the ecommerce application I see there is one path of user actions
that leads to the display of the total product price in the cart where
the sales tax is included twice (also in the trunk).
This happens when:
- navigating away from the chechoutreview screen (not finalizing order)
- the productStore setting "Show prices with VAT tax included = J".
Technically speaking I think the following is happening:
- When going from the checkoutoptions to the checkoutreview screen the
tax is calculated for the cart, by calling the function
cart.getTotalSalesTax(); in checkoutreview.groovy.
- The debugger mentions this: TaxAuthorityServices.java:118:INFO ] For
productId [zszSanRemo1] added [38.000] of tax to price for geoId
[NLD], new price is [238.000]
- In shoppingcart.java, in the getDisplayGrandTotal function, which
output is used to show the cart prices, the tax is added. (to the
price that is already including the sales tax)
When in ShoppingCart.java in the function getDisplayGrandTotal,
replacing
return
this
.getDisplaySubTotal
().add
(this
.getTotalShipping
()).add
(this.getTotalSalesTax()).add(this.getOrderOtherAdjustmentTotal());
with
return
this
.getDisplaySubTotal
().add
(this.getTotalShipping()).add(this.getOrderOtherAdjustmentTotal());
the prices are shown as I would expect them to show:
"Show prices with VAT tax included = J" you always want to display
prices including sales tax and, with value N never, also not after you
abort the checkout proces.
I've been working with OFBiz a bit longer now and usually there are
some good reasons to do things, as I expect there are for the above
mentioned example. However this leads to undesired results when
showing prices including sales tax?
Like to read your thoughts on this.
Met vriendelijke groet,
Willem Janssen

Thank you for this feedback Hans!
Another attempt then to explain this issue (reproduced in the demo
system):
First of all some backend data has to be set to reproduce this problem:
1. Set up a tax authority for the demo shop. I used the tax authority
party with ID ON_TAXMAN, because this one already has ‘Include Tax in
Price = Y’. At ‘Product Rates’ I added a sales tax value for the demo
store (9000).
2. Then the store settings for store with ID 9000: Prorate taxes = Y,
Show prices with vat tax included = Y, Show tax is exempt = Y, Vat Tax
Auth Geo Id = ON, Vat Tax Auth Party Id = ON_TAXMAN. (no changes to
other store data)
In in the ecommerce application:
3. Add a product to the shopping cart
4. Check out (use a shipping address in Ontario, Canada to use the tax
settings).
5. From the Final Checkout Review screen navigate back to home (so not
submitting the order)
6. Navigate to shopping cart
=> The Sales Tax is included twice in the total display amount.
If things remain unclear please let me know (I could provide
screenshots to reproduce).

Hi Willem,
Your story is too general. If you would like to have a clear answer try
to reconstruct it on your local system (demo system is down at the
moment) using a standard trunk version and standard demo data.
If you you can give a replayable series of inputs which shows the
problem, you have a much bigger chance to receive an answer on this
problem.
Regards,
Hans
