Same tax rate is displaying as two line items with same label [#2099733]

Hello all,

When setting up a tax rate on products, there is the option to also tax the Shipping line item. This results in two separate line items with the same label shown for both line items.

I would like to accomplish one of two things:

1. (preferred) Combine the two tax line items into one line item
OR
2. Change the label of the 2nd line item that is for the tax on shipping, so it at least clarifies what that tax amount is for.

I'm not sure how to do either option, and am curious if anyone has a solution.

Thanks!

This doesn't happen for me in 6.x-2.x-dev; if I have a taxed product and taxed shipping in my cart, there is only one tax line item displayed in checkout with the amount combined. Are you using a module to provide tax rates or are you just setting them manually in the tax settings? Do you have more than one rate set up?

Hi,

Thank you for the quick response. I am just setting them manually in the tax settings in Ubercart. See new screenshot attached showing the form I filled out to setup the tax rate.

It sounds like I may just need to upgrade my version of Ubercart. You said it does not behave that way for you in the dev version, but I would be interested to know what happens in the most recent stable release.

Thanks

The screen shot shows you're only taxing the shipping, not the product. Do you perhaps have two taxes set up with the same label, one applying to the product and the other applying to the shipping? As longwave said, this doesn't happen with the current version of Ubercart, and in fact I've never seen it on *any* version of Ubercart over the last 6 years.

I thought if we left that blank, it would assume ALL product types, so I have rarely checked "Product", and it always seemed to charge tax on the products regardless.

I don't have two taxes setup either, just the one. I suppose I could try checking "Product" and see if that fixes the problem.

Will report back.

When I place a check by "Product" it double-charges the portion of tax for the products. For example, before I checked that, it showed the following for a specific order:

MN Sales Tax: $0.95
MN Sales Tax: $7.97

After I check "Products" it showed:

MN Sales Tax: $8.92
MN Sales Tax: $7.97

So I'm not sure what's going on there. I really do only have one tax charge setup (see new screenshot).

Could there possibly be a bug from the combination of using "products with taxonomy terms" and including tax on shipping?

Thanks.

That really implies that you either have two tax rates set up or that you're using a custom or contributed module that handles taxes.

If by "products with taxonomy terms" you mean you're using https://drupal.org/project/uc_taxonomy_tax , then that module does say in its description that it will add its own line for taxes ... that would explain what you're seeing.
