In this case I should have a double limited view:

Hi,

Multi restriction is not possible.
Why not simply use three values: private, european company, non european company ?
That way, if you restrict the VAT field to the european country choice, you won't see it for non european companies.

Ok, thanks for your suggestion. We will add a third option in the radio button. Hope anyway you will consider this feature that could be helpfull in cases like mine.

Thanks.

Hi there,

Can you get me started on how to show the VAT field depending on the country choice? So how to make the VAT field shown conditionally?

Any input would be appreciated!

Hi Nicolas,

Thanks for the reply but is what you suggest in this quote not the same result? How to activate this restriction country related to VAT?

Thanks!

It's not the same. What I'm suggesting in that quote is to create a new custom address field so that you can restrict the VAT field to display only for one value of that field.
What you asked about was about restricting the VAT field to display only for 27 values of the country field.
The display restriction system doesn't yet support multi-value restrictions.

Hi Nicolas,

As I read it in the quote is that you can see the field VAT depending on the (country) selection made. This is how I would like to have it, but can you advise on how to achieve this?

Thanks!

As I said, there is no option to do that.
You can only restrict a field to one value, so one field, not to several of them.
In my quote, the user added a new field where the use can choose between individual, european company, non eurpoean company. And thus you can configure the VAT field to only display for the european company value.

Hi Nicolas,

How do I create a new custom address field so that you can restrict the VAT field to display only for one value of that field, as stated in your quote? I think this is what I'm looking for?

You can click on the "new" button of the menu Display&gt;Custom fields. There create your new field with the different values. Then, edit the VAT field and restrict it to the value you want of the field you just created.

Hi,

Yes the restrictions on fields are available from Business Edition.

hi

I've tested in the demo for business edition, you can only display a custom field limited to a single value.

Example : I would like to the display of the VAT to the countries of Europe only.
- Do I need to create 28 custom fields for the 28 countries ? It would be huge and not very clever
- I tried to create a "country" zone (Europe), but on the frontend it's in the country list of the address fields (and won't be selected by visitors)
- other types are not good because they don't appear in the backend in the "display limited to" param.

Do you have an idea ?

regards

EDIT : an idea for later, it could be restricted also to a regex value ... or a SQL value (right part of WHERE).

ok fine.

I succeeded to manage VAT with the above advices from Nicolas :

- 3 radio buttons {French company, European company, International company}
- 2 VAT fields :
* 1 for french company (which is subject to 20% VAT), with the display limited to "French Company"
* 1 for european company (VAT number mandatory), with display limited to "European company"
* and no 3rd field in the case of an international company, no VAT field is displayed.

Great.
