I have a small problem I hope someone can help with, in Australia all items the have tax on them must include the tax in the advetised price, I can see a way this can be done in shopping cart ?

If I include the tax in the price of the item it adds it on again in the cart, if I dont include it in the adds price it adds it on in the cart perfect but the add price doesnt show the tax.

Is there some way to made the store price show the price + the tax ?

Cheers

Yes I agree with Wayne, we have strict tax laws here (bit stupid really) and we have to comply. Makes the whole thing a bit messy.

Scott, if you read this, how did you go with the shop that was uploaded, you haven't got back to me yet and I really need to get this shop finished.

Some say it can't be done, while others are doing it.

It isn't a problem. Just leave the tax as zero. As we only (thankfully) have one rate (technically) of 10% we don't have to show it as a seperate line in ANY advertised price, nor do we have to show what the tax rate is.

The reciept that you would supply with the goods would need to show the GST as a separate line. Along with your ABN, if you have one.
