I just posted some feedback in the support forums on the beta which might help </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/help-adding-tax-to-total#post-55806 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 13:14:04 +0000 Rob Harrell 55806@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>We are currently messing around with this ourselves over here. Will update once I have something concrete. Any chance you can post a link to your form that you are working on? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/help-adding-tax-to-total#post-55793 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 10:58:38 +0000 Fika 55793@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi Rob,</p> <p>My comment on the beta is awaiting moderation so posting up my results of using the beta here as I can't seem to calculate the tax this way either.</p> <p>Using the beta release, I added a number field above my total in the form and enabled the calculation. A few issues I am noticing</p> <p>* Should the Total Field be in the Merge Tag drop down list? I can't seem to pick that total field which is what I need to calculate my 25% tax amount (=Total / 5)</p> <p>* The field on the frontend when the form is published has a dropdown arrow beside it. I would obviously only need this field for information purposes and not for the user to interact with via a dropdown. Is a dropdown the only supported field to make calculations in? The number field that is.</p> <p>So maybe you can help support based on this? Not sure if you seen it another way to make this calculation? but all I want to do is to divide my total by 5. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/help-adding-tax-to-total#post-55789 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 10:25:00 +0000 Fika 55789@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi Rob,</p> <p>Thanks for the input. Dave just pointed the beta out on another thread, sounds great. </p> <p>Do you have any indication how soon the official release will be ready? Is it a matter of weeks or months? I could give the beta a try, just not sure how buggy it is or will it screw up any of my current forms I am using. </p> <p>Thanks </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/help-adding-tax-to-total#post-55783 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 10:06:07 +0000 Rob Harrell 55783@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>The new calculations functions in the beta would solve for this I'm sure if you wanted to try to play around with it.</p> <p>You can always post on the job board as well. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/help-adding-tax-to-total#post-55762 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 09:21:55 +0000 Fika 55762@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hey Dave,</p> <p>I have it working as described, but without the UI showing the breakdown. Do you think this should be working like I have laid out or is it a further customization?</p> <p>If so, do you have any tips on where to start looking or how to do it?</p> <p>Adding tax to pricing fields must be a common question, do you know of anyone else who has implemented it? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/help-adding-tax-to-total#post-55761 Thu, 19 Apr 2012 09:13:50 +0000 David Peralty 55761@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>They both go into the functions.php file. </p> <p>And it should work as you've laid out, but it might require some customization that goes beyond the support I can provide here. </p>
