Was there a fix to the red astericks that show up on "all" the amounts in the Total Column on the invoice? I thought I remember seeing a discussion on it before and cant find it now.
Also, I just updated to r59 (Modified Address and Country address format) and didn't see any change. I was thinking it was going to change the layout of where the postal code was? Anyhow, just wanted to check.
Red asterisks on Invoice
Re: Red asterisks on Invoice
In admin settings under localization, you should have 2 settings to include tax on invoice.
For USA, you probably want both set to no.
The astericks just designates tax included in price.
We split the checkout and the display modules to be independent of each other to satisfy all locals.
The default in the address is changed a little. Now post code is at the end.
The addition in the county is the help box which shows you how to change the setting.
For USA, got to your country and insert the format you want in the text box.
That will change the customer address format.
If you are talking about the store, the address you insert in the store text box is displayed how you enter it.

Re: Red asterisks on Invoice
Hmmm, thats strange. I do have both localization settings to no. I will attach a image of what I'm seeing.
I have the customer address format set correctly.
I want to change the Create Account/Address book to match so the customer will see it this way when they enter their information. I think I may have had it changed at one time so I'll work on it again.
firstname lastname
company
address_1
address_2
city
zone
postcode

Re: Red asterisks on Invoice
The last column in the invoice always includes tax.
It is the total of all items in the row, one of which is tax.
We felt it made for a balanced invoice similar to what a point of sale invoice would be.
It also satisfied the stringent invoice format rules in Europe and other locals.
The address format should be constant between invoicing and customer address.
It won't match account create. That is just a form for the required information and does not match anything.
It is only the results pulled from the database that are formatted according to your format.

Re: Red asterisks on Invoice
Ok, I changed the account create form to look like I want.
I understand needing to add the tax to each line and that doesn't bother me, its that the asterisks shouldn't really be there if no tax was included and just looks odd and alarming (for a U.S. invoice). Its not really a big deal, I'll learn to live with it.
Have you ever considered adding a estimated shipping cost function so that people could check to see what shipping cost would be without having to register or log in? Could be a cool feature.

Re: Red asterisks on Invoice
I just uploaded R62.
The library address is changed.
It uses the most common mailing and shipping format I have found as the system default.
firstname lastname
company
address_1
address_2
city, zone
country, postcode
The change is admin setting now has a default address.
in your case, you could set to:
firstname lastname
company
address_1
address_2
city
zone
country
postcode
That will over ride the system hard coded default for all countries.
Then, you have the same address setting in each country that will over ride both defaults, so you can tailor to each country if you like.
I think this should satisfy everyone's requirements.
I'll look at the asterisks think when I get back.

Re: Red asterisks on Invoice
How can I get rid of the red asterisks and the bottom line that says what the asterisks mean? I expected to see it in checkout_confirm.tpl, but I didn't.
Re: Red asterisks on Invoice
Are you sure you w ish to do that.
If you have tax not included, the last column to the right still shows the line with the tax as it is a total.
Most countries require you to note any totals that include tax if it is not included on other lines in the invoice.
If you still want to remove it, I will look at what you need to change. It's been a long time since that invoice format was built, that I don't even remember the coding. Senile, I guess.

Re: Red asterisks on Invoice
I expect that most orders will be to the US. That's the case for me now on Etsy. The only tax that I need to collect is for sales in Texas.
I did find the * on account_invoice.tpl, so I will go back and look at the others.
I'm I'm not senile, then you aren't!
