I’m struggling to get AwoCoupons Pro gift certificates to display items properly in the shopping cart. I have Virtuemart tax rules set to Tax Per Bill so each product displays the base price without tax, and the tax is added in the cart as a separate line item as a total tax figure for all items in the cart. That’s the way we do things in the United States.
I have AwoCoupons Pro configuration > Calculate the discount before tax (Gift Certificates) set to No. Gift certificates don’t reduce the tax charge, it should still tax the total price of the products.
Normally a product in the cart displays as desired like this:
$24.00 product
$ 1.80 tax
$ 6.00 shipping
——————————
$31.80 total
However, when I apply a gift certificate code, it displays crazy like this:
$24.00 product
-$30.00 coupon
-$ 0.45 tax
$ 6.00 shipping
——————————
$ 0.00 total
And only $30.00 is removed from the gift certificate balance. The actual cost should be $31.80.
Now if I switch Virtuemart tax rules to Tax Per Product, add a product to the cart and apply the gift certificate code, it works correctly:
$25.80 product base price + tax combined
-$31.80 coupon
$ 6.00 shipping
——————————
$ 0.00 total
But now all product prices are displayed as base price + tax included = $25.80 instead of $24.00. I can set Virtuemart Configuration > Pricing to Show Tax in Cart as a separate amount, but the products still have tax included in their price, which I don’t want.
Finally, my question… Is there a way to set this up so when Gift Certificates are applied the cart displays prices correctly in the cart AND the product prices don’t have tax included? - Like this?
$24.00 product base price without tax
-$31.80 coupon
$ 1.80 tax
$ 6.00 shipping
——————————
$ 0.00 total
My install:
Joomla 2.5.18
Virtuemart 2.0.26d
AwoCoupons Pro 2.2.5
Thanks, Richard
