             Summary: Regarding national laws when applying taxes on shipping costs
                 Key: OFBIZ-10679
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-10679
             Project: OFBiz
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: framework
    Affects Versions: Trunk
            Reporter: Benjamin Jugl


As mentioned in [#OFBIZ-4160] there are different ways to approach tax-calculation on shipping-costs.

While some countries (like the Netherlands) have a fixed price for this, others calculate the delivery just like the delivered good (or a weighted version, if multiple taxrates are applied to the shipping).

As I stated:
{quote}[..]it is advisable to introduce a new ProductCategory "TAX_SHIPPING". This could be administered through TAX_AUTHORITY_RATE_PRODUCT for individual tax authorities.  Then there could be a condition before my newly implemented logic, to use this tax rate, if it is found, and if it is not, my logic is executed.
