Allow Coupons To Be Taxable Or Applied Before Line Item Tax

[wdfee]

Hello,

 

I'm trying the following:

One service costs $ 5.00 incl. tax, that's $4.20 excluding tax. This service is created via package (using Universal Module).

Now I want to offer a coupon for the whole $5.00 amount.

But when the coupon is now applied to the service, it's calculated down to $4.20 - so the client has an invoice about $0.80 instead of free.

(Per order form / api)

 

I also tried setting the coupon to $5.95 - this would be $5.00 + tax. But this one is also calculated down to the $4.20 of the line item.

 

Request:

A. Allow coupons to be taxable. Maybe a checkbox when creating the coupon. This should be applied automatically.

B. (Much better): Apply the coupon to the line item before it is taxed. This would make more sense to me, because nobody has to tax $0.00 - right?

 

Thanks!

Nice idea

Great idea. This is general logic and should have been built into the Blesta invoicing system originally. I hope it's updated ASAP.

So the issue here is just that coupons are applied after tax, rather than before tax?

Yes mate I believe so.

yes. I think it's because it's added like a line item (without tax), after the promoted product line item (with tax)
