Format Tax Rate

[flangefrog]

Please format the tax rate on display. Instead of displaying GST (15.0000%) I want it to display GST (15%). Probably something like floatval($tax_rate) would be fine, I can't think of a reason anybody would need extra 0s. As a workaround I've changed the database column to be an INT.

I know of at least one province in Canada that has a provincial sales tax rate of 9.975%, so it definitely needs the decimal places. However, I don't need them, so I used round( ) on the tax rate in my invoice template to get rid of those zeros in the pdf invoice.

 

In line 315 of components/invoice_templates/default_invoice/default_invoice_pdf.php change $tax->amount to round($tax->amount) so that it looks like

$data[] = array('notes'=>null,'label'=>Language::_("DefaultInvoice.tax_heading", true, $tax->name, round($tax->amount)),'price'=>$this->CurrencyFormat->format($tax->tax_total, $this->invoice->currency, self::$standard_num_options));

If you still want some of the decimal places, you can specify how many like this round($tax->amount,2)

 

It doesn't bother me if the zeros still appear in the admin panel, so this change was all it took to make me happy.

I wasn't suggesting to remove numbers after the decimal, floatval() just removes the extraneous 0s. e.g.

floatval(1.1234) = 1.1234
floatval(1.1230 ) = 1.123
floatval(1.0000) = 1

$amount + 0 or (float)$amount do the same thing.

Ah, now I understand your request. I agree.

I bumped this up in our backlog. If you don't see it in 4.0 beta 1, feel free to remind us and we may be able to sneak it in before final.
