Simple Invoices - Forum

Hello,

I am new to Simple Invoices, and am having the following problem.

Local tax rate is 8.625% and gets rounded to 8.63%, as it's not legal to charge at a different rate
I modified the si_tax table field tax_percentage to decimal(11,3) from decimal(10,2) which seems to work.

Am I creating more problems for my self, is there a better way to do this?

P.S. keep up the great work.

Thanks
George

Hey George

thanks - didn't know there where tax rates with more than 2 decimal places

theres no other way than what you did you get it working
but.. all the invoices are formatted to round to 2 decimal places

Question:
1 - do you prices,total cost etc. need to be 3 decimal places or is rounded to 2 OK?
2 - what country are you in?

Cheers

Justin

Justin,

Thanks for the quick reply.

Cost is 2 decimal places.

Country is USA, New York state, Suffolk county.

Note that tax rates differ in NYS by County were sale takes place.

Or if mail order then county of the purchaser.

Thanks

George
