TaxTotal is ZERO

Vote:
 

Hi,

I have set up a UK TAX with a rate of 20 and then attached this Tax category to my product variants but on the Basket page my TaxTotal is always ZERO.

Is this a bug in Commerce or have I missed something?

You may need to run CardValidate Workflow once.

The CartValidate doesn't include tax calculations. Use the CartPrepare workflow if you want to calculate taxes on a cart. The code for that could be:

CartHelper.RunWorkflow("CartPrepare")

or

Cart.RunWorkflow(OrderGroupWorkflowManager.CartPrepareWorkflowName)

The OrderGroupWorkflowManager contains static string variables for each of the three workflows used for carts out of the box.

Here's more documentation on the workflows to better understand them:

The other thing to remember is that Tax calculations can only ever calculate a non-zero tax value for Line Items that

  • have a Shipping Address attached to them
  • have a valid Tax category associated
  • the tax category has rates associated for the jurisdiction of the Shipping Address
  • and the rates are non-zero.
