How to separate Tax and Shipping on PayPal Invoice

Hello everyone,

I have Virtuemart 2.x installed tied to PayPal for my payments.

The cart looks correct meaning it displays the Cost, the Tax, and the Shipping cost.

When the customer goes to pay via PayPal he/she see the itemized bill but the tax and shipping are combined in a line labeled "Shipping and Handling"

I called PayPal who instructed me that they only display what is given to them meaning it is on the Virtuemart side.

How can I show two separate lines for Tax and Shipping in place of the Shipping and Handling?

Thank you in advance.

The first attachment shows what my cart looks like.  This is correct.

The second attachment shows my PayPal Cart.  Here you can see that the Tax and Shipping are added together and displayed under "Shipping and Handling".

This is what I would like to break out into two separate lines.  One for Tax and one for Shipping.

Thanks!

Just checking in to see if anyone knows how to separate the tax and shipping on the paypal invoice.

It is separated in the cart but when it is redirected to PayPal the two values are combined into one field labeled "Shipping and Handling"

Thanks.

I have a similar case but taxes are not separated on the amount in the paypal invoice.
Is correct in Virtuemart but my boss is asking about where are the taxes.

I had a close discussion on this thread (http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=124095.0) and it's related with taxes since at the beginning taxes and shipping were managed by paypal but that led me to errors in the log setting me to pending transactions and manual verifying.

In short we sent the taxes to virtuemart and turned off in paypal to avoid double taxation, as well as shipping and orders are coming out with the correct amounts. However my other boss is asking where are the taxes in the paypal invoice (i just had this morning an email about it).

I don't know if this helps but i want to keeep on the loop of this topic

Hi,
I have the same problem.

Does someone found a solution about this on Virtuemart 3/Joomla 3?

Thank you!

Hi, thank you for your reply.

I already try it (first thing that I did), but it didn't make any difference. It also is the option selected in my website right now.

Oh, sorry.
I did some tests (with the PayPal product) and change it to standard during these tests. I forgot to put it back for the screenshot, but it's still not working.

There are the results. I use either taxbill or valtax.
