etrfl Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Has anyone gotten tax functions to operate correctly in 1.4?I have the tax enabled on the taxes page, I have the tax rules set to apply state tax only. I have a text carrier set-up to with ranges configured. I have a customer set-up within the taxable state and no taxes are applied.I had 1.3 taxes set-up but can't find an error anywhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbjarnson Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 looking for the same thing. Not working anymore under 1.4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etrfl Posted March 19, 2011 Author Share Posted March 19, 2011 The only way I have found is if you enable the state tax rule in the catalog entry. I have tested with one instate and one out of state test customer and it only charges tax to the instate customer. You can only select one tax so hopefully that is all you need to do.

curtdonohue Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Thanks bellini13 for posting to that bug report. I added to it. I'm astounded that there aren't more people posting on this issue. Does anyone know if there is any form of a tutorial for 1.4 taxes yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etrfl Posted March 23, 2011 Author Share Posted March 23, 2011 Not that I can find. Now when I have taxes to display on separate line in cart block, they don't appear...but they will show in cart summary... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curtdonohue Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 etrfl,If you want your taxes to display in the Cart on a separate line, go to Back Office->Payment->Taxes. At the bottom of that page you will find the "Tax Options" Section. Enable (check the "yes" option), then Save.After you refresh your store, you should now see a line for taxes in your Cart Block.

etrfl Posted March 23, 2011 Author Share Posted March 23, 2011 Ya but mine is not working at the minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curtdonohue Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Wow, that's weird. Any idea how this happened? Was it working at one time? What changes did you make before you notices this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etrfl Posted March 23, 2011 Author Share Posted March 23, 2011 Thanks for the quick replies. I have only added one module, a slide show to the homepage. I just turned this feature on last night and have been toying with 1.4 for a month or so. I don't have any error messages with debugging on. I really would like to get the taxes configured though. Right setting all the products to collect my states tax will only hold water for so long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frato Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Same problem for me, can't get the taxes to show on my product page. Everything seems to be well configured ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curtdonohue Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 All,It appears that a work-around for the tax problem now exists. Check out the posts at http://www.prestashop.com/bug_tracker/view/8315/. It's a bit convoluted, but Prestashop says they have it fixed and that fix will come out in the next revision. Try out the fix and let this thread know if you can't make it work. It works great for me now, except that I can't put in ranges of zip codes. Hopefully, that will be part of the upcoming fix.

etrfl Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 Curt,Thanks for the link, I will work on it this weekend . I saw that report a while back before the fix was issued. One question, you said you replaced the single quotes, what do you mean by that?"I figured out what happened. I took a close look at the code you provided and noticed that the single quote characters appeared to be different that what comes up when I just type a single quote. I replaced all the single quotes in the pasted coded and it works fine now." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curtdonohue Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 etrfl,Sorry about that. Instead of saying "single quote," I should have said "apostrophe." In other words, in the code that bellini13 has in the bug report, there are characters that look like apostrophes, but they are not. Replace those characters that look like apostrophes by deleting them and then typing a new apostrophe. You should notice a difference in the way they look.However, you should not have to replace the other characters that are slanted the other way. I don't know what they are called, but you can find that character on your keyboard (assuming it is like mine) just to the left of the "1" key. It is below the tilde character.

etrfl Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 So far I have set up my shop with the same tax settings as yours (minus the code change) and my taxes are not calculated. Thanks again for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etrfl Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 Well I have changed the code and made all settings to yours identical. County tax is not being calculated. Now just to be clear, are you setting your rule in the product page as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curtdonohue Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 etrfl,Be sure you make the code changes or the taxes will not work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etrfl Posted March 26, 2011 Author Share Posted March 26, 2011 I changed the code and quotes. I will double check and make sure I didn't mess anything up. Taxes were so simple in 1.3.Edit: I missed the part where range does not work. If I enter a single zip it will work. My county has about 2 dozen zips so I guess I will have to enter them one at a time.Edit 2: What I don't understand is what if I have two different taxes to charge. If I can only choose 1 per product, what can I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curtdonohue Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Hello All,I've put together a video tutorial on how I set up my taxes.

lwdmall Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Hi all I can not get my shop taxes to work correctly I am using version 1.4.4 and I had the same problem in 1.4.3. I am in USA California and I need to collect taxes for all the counties within the state. My county is San Bernardo and my rate is 7.75% other counties like Los Angles is 8.75 % so I set up my base rate for California as 7.75 % and setup a county for Los Angles at 1% and added all the zip codes for this county one at a time. I followed Curts videos to set it all up and I have a test product of $100 to easily see the rate. However when I sign on with my San Bernardo county address 92392 I get the 8.75% tax rate. I have check the LA tax zipcodes and 92392 is Not in that county rate that I set up but it still shows the 8.75 rate rather than the 7.75 rate that it should be. It works fine for out of state addresses but not for CA. does anyone know if the but for county tax has been fixed in the new 1.4.4 version? Thanks for your help. Frustrated.
