Shipping as far as I know is never taxed in the U.S. - I've never worked on a site where shipping has been taxed. But Kartris is set up so that if tax is applied, it is always applied to shipping fees as well.
I found this forum post about how to remove tax from shipping: http://forum.kartris.com/Topic3232.aspx. But this post permanently removes it. I think this is something that should be configurable as part of the Kartris code base.
I created a configuration variable for it with the following SQL:
INSERT INTO tblKartrisConfig (CFG_Name, CFG_Value, CFG_DataType, CFG_DisplayType, CFG_DisplayInfo, CFG_Description, CFG_VersionAdded, CFG_DefaultValue, CFG_Important)
VALUES ('general.tax.chargeonshipping', 'y', 's', 'b', 'y|n', 'Whether to charge tax on shipping', '2.8004', 'y', 0) GO
I then modified BasketBLL.vb at Line 1737 to be:If GetKartConfig("general.tax.chargeonshipping") = "y" Then
ShippingPrice.TaxRate = IIf(ApplyTax, .ComputedTaxRate, 0)
Else
ShippingPrice.TaxRate = 0
End If
I then modified KartrisClasses.vb at Line 356 to be:If GetKartConfig("general.tax.chargeonshipping") = "y" Then
If blnUStaxEnabled Or blnSimpletaxEnabled Then
numShippingTaxRate = ShippingCountry.ComputedTaxRate
Else
blnNormalShippingTax = True
End If
Else
numShippingTaxRate = 0
End If
And finally modified KartrisClasses.vb at Line 439 to be:If GetKartConfig("general.tax.chargeonshipping") = "y" Then
If blnUStaxEnabled Or blnSimpletaxEnabled Then
numShippingTaxRate = ShippingCountry.ComputedTaxRate
Else
blnNormalShippingTax = True
End If
Else
numShippingTaxRate = 0
End If
This allows whether or not the shipping is taxed to be configured in the admin. It would be great to see this included in the code base in a future release.
