osmyrna Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Hello, I've got everything pretty well set up, but I just got an order in from my home state and it didn't have the sales tax entered. So I went through the instructions and re-did everything in the admin, but I still can't get any sales tax to enter. Is there something else I need to do? I've searched, but this doesn't seem to be a common problem. I did install PWA modifications - could this be affecting anything? I tried both the PWA page and the regular account page, and it didn't charge tax on either. Help? Osmyrna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendy James Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 The products all have a tax class assigned? Quote Wendy James Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osmyrna Posted June 25, 2006 Author Share Posted June 25, 2006 Er, no. I just discovered that was the problem and am now trying to find out how to fix it through the database, since I've entered 635 products so far. Sigh. Can help?

Can help?Osmyrna use the following SQL query: UPDATE products SET `products_tax_class_id` = '1' WHERE 1 Assuming you only have one tax class. If you have more than one you will have to change `products_tax_class_id` = '1' accordingly. Where 1 = the tax class ID. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cricex Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 it maybe in your best interest to change the default value of "products_tax_class_id' in the products table. ALTER TABLE `products` CHANGE `products_tax_class_id` `products_tax_class_id` INT( 11 ) NOT NULL DEFAULT '1' this query will make it so all tax class id's are automatically 1 by default.

osmyrna Posted June 25, 2006 Author Share Posted June 25, 2006 Happy, happy. Thank you. Just did both database edits and then ran a sample order through; and it put the correct tax charge for the items and s/h. Osmyrna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonictrip.net Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Excellent, i was looking for this too and it works perfectly! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insomniac2 Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Just so you do not run into that problem in the future. Ther is a mod called Default Product Tax Class which works great in case you forget to assign a tax class to products. It will automatically use the Tax Class you define during checkout. It should have been included in oscommerce but I think it came out after osc release. Contribution: Default Product Tax Class Easy to install.
