VIXUS Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Hi,Serious problem here!I have some customers that dont pay tax at all... mainly religious institutions and embassys.Is there a way to implement chackbox when creating invoice that will ask does this customer pays tax or not'Or that i can manually in BO edit customer and click certain checkbox with option "dont include tax" when im making invoices per that user?

youbiquitous Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I'm fairly new to Prestashop so no guarantee my suggestion is the best one. Furthermore, I haven't tested the idea myself, but I believe it should work. I'd suggest creating a new zone called "Tax Exempt" that has no taxes and a new country called "Tax Exempt" that belongs to that zone. Have your tax exempt customers create their accounts using that country in their address. They should not be charged taxes, though some things might look funny with "Tax Exempt" as the country in their address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VIXUS Posted May 13, 2009 Author Share Posted May 13, 2009 I dont think this is the right way to fix this.I think that developers shud make fundamental changes to the way invoicing works now.First they shud set invoices so that all product show only pre tax prices (still products in shop must show normal price with tax) and all services (transport, gift wrapping) as well.Than after all comes tax.And that we have simple checkbox in customers details where we can check "NO TAX" for particular customer.

youbiquitous Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I dont think this is the right way to fix this. No, probably not. I don't disagree that the way taxes work is annoying, but I'd think this is an acceptable workaround in the meantime.I think that developers shud make fundamental changes to the way invoicing works now. I'm not sure this requires "fundamental changes". The only piece missing here is the concept of customer groups or classes which I believe is in version 1.2. I haven't tried 1.2 myself, but incorporating customer groups and tax classes is a straightforward progression, not a fundamental change.First they shud set invoices so that all product show only pre tax prices (still products in shop must show normal price with tax) and all services (transport, gift wrapping) as well.Than after all comes tax. The requisite changes to do just this have already been done by folks here. TomerG3 is one who's done this and is very willing to share his code.
