Guest Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 (edited) In a recent osCommerce setup (2.2) we only have to charge sales tax to California customers. The cart is applying CA sales tax to all orders, regardless of where the ship-to address is. Settings: Tax Zones: California (only one entry showing here - for CA) Tax Classes: Taxable goods (only entry) Tax Rates: (only one entry showing here): Priority: 0 Zone: CA Tax Rate: 8.25% Config - MyStore: Zone = California Config - Shipping/Packaging: Zip code is correct for CA location Store URL: http://www.synchronicityshoppe.com Any help would be greatly appreciated.

cdickson Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 I'm in Michigan and am having the same problem. My settings are the same (Michigan equivalents, obviously). Right now I am furiously scouring this forum, because I have to believe that we aren't the first ones to face this issue. If I find the answer I'll let you know - would you be so kind as to do the same? Quote cdickson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdickson Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 (edited) I figured it out: 1. Login to your admin area 2. Click on Locations/Taxes 3. Click on Tax Zones 4. On the initial Tax Zone list that shows, where you have entered California should have a file folder icon next to it. The trick is that it goes one level deeper. 5. Click on the file folder - If it isn't set up correctly there should be a display of "Displaying 0 to 0 (of 0 countries)" 6. Click the Insert button 7. The message will read "Please enter the new sub zone information" 8. Choose United States for the Country and California for the Zone 9. Click Insert You should be all set!

HQ Secure Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 I wish I had your problem. I'm trying to get my shop to charge a tax rate for each of the US fifty states and for three days now have had no luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
