Multiple VAT lines in invoice - how to show only sum?

[amymattian]

Hi,
using Joomla 3.8.8. and VM 3.2.14 (so latest versions in May/2018). I see in the order invoice that each product has created a separate VAT 24% line at the sum-area of the invoice. The separate VAT are already marked on each individual product-line, so there is no need to show each line as separate anymore in the totals area. in the totals we need TOTAL of each VAT %.

Now it is shown this way:
Product                 Price      QTY      TAX        Reduction      Total
1)  Product nr. 1    41,93€     1     10,06      0                  51,99€
2)  Product nr. 2     30,90€    1      7,42      0                   38,32€
3)  Product nr. 3     30,90€     2    14,83     0                   76,63€
4)  Product nr. 4     30,90€   2      14,83        0                76,63€
5)  Product nr. 5     11,77€   1      2,82      0                    14,59€
6)  Product nr. 6     30,90€   2      14,83      0                  76,63€



Products total       64,80      0       334,80€
              VAT 24%   10,06             10,06€
              VAT 24%   7,42               7,42€
              VAT 24%   7,42               7,42€
              VAT 24%   7,42               7,42€
              VAT 24%   2,82               2,82€
              VAT 24%   7,42               7,42€
Shipping tax             2,03              10,50€
TOTAL                     66,83€          345,30€


So I see that these VAT 24% lines are not the same as the ones with the product-details, since they are vat of ONE product, not 2 incase 2 is ordered. So this whole second VAT lines make no sense whatsoever. What is the whole idea of these lines? How can we get the VAT in the summary to show just the totals of VAT, for example
VAT 24% 64,80€
VAT 14%  0,00€
Shipping 2,03€
TOTAL   66,83€

Note I am not a coder so if this needs some coding, could  I please get detailed instructions. I hope this can be fixed in the settings...

It should be shown as you say. So I really wonder how that happened. Are the 24% different rules in the Backend? I know sounds strange, but could explain that. Because the system combines the taxes by the rules, not the value.

Maybe it is your template/layout override. Disable for a test your override folder to be sure.

Hi,
there is only one VAT calculation rule for this ship. I do see that there is a template override files for Virtuemart Invoice... but since am not a coder, not sure what those have in them... but I imagine they are the cause of this issue, if what you say is true and that invoices should have the total-vat in the totals, not separate lines for each product.
