    hello,

    can I use gravity form to calculate VAT?

    I want to build a form and add VAT a certain amount (which in my country is 20% of the amount).

    I tried to use the special field for prices, but did not go anywhere.

    thanks

    Hi there,
    I am trying to figure out working out VAT too. I want a field "VAT included in the above total" on my form.
    I read your link post and tried to follow the instructions.
    I can't see the total in the merge tags dropdown.
    Please advise how to identify the total field so that I can enter a formula for 14% VAT.
    Unfortunately my form is not visible as I am using maintenance mode.
    Regards,
    Shalene

    Calculations were added to Gravity Forms after that post was written. Have you already tried added a new field (product field or number field) then checked the box "Enable Calculation"? Enter a formula which is your purchase times 0.14 to add 14% VAT to the total.

    See the release post here describing how to use calculations:
