When having multiple price points for volume of products the VAT doesn't seem to be calculating correctly. What could be wrong please?

Hi,

Well, the first screenshot has the tax amount calculated for a product price in an order placed by a user on the frontend.
The second screenshot has the tax amount calculated for a product price in the backend product edit interface for your user account.
While both can be the same, they can be different.

For example, on our website hikashop.com, as per EU laws, we have to charge a different tax rate for each country of the EU based on the location of the customer, and no taxes if the customer is outside the EU. But in the backend, when I edit the price of a product, since my backend user address is in France, I see the tax amount with the French sales tax of 20%. So the price with taxes is most of the time different between what I see in the backend product edit form and what I see when I edit the order of someone, and that's normal in the case of our setup.

So, what you describe is not necessarily wrong. It could just be that you configured different tax rates in the System>Taxes menu.
That's the first thing I would recommend you checking.

Also, note that there can be rounding issues in some cases, especially when the prices have decimals and the quantities are high.
This is dictated by the "Round prices during calculations" setting of the HikaShop configuration:

Hi Nicolas,

Thank you for the reply. I totally understand what you are saying. I am really hoping for a configuration issue. At the moment I can not find it?

There are no EU laws – just UK sold to the UK and all goods are VAT enabled.

I tried the "Round prices during calculations" setting ,and the “cumulative tax” setting – both and in combination didn’t work?

Do you please have any other suggestions? ~

Many thanks

Hi,

It will be hard to say without looking into the details of your setup. Could you provide a backend access via our contact form ?
