Fwd: Taxes issues in 1.2.8

["Angus Jordan" <..hidden..>]

Can anyone help with this issue?  I'd really like to actually start using LSMB, but this is a major issue for me and anyone else that had the same circumstances as I did.

Patiently, I await an answer.

Regards,
Angus Jordan

Hello all,

I have finally managed to find some time to upgrade my SL 
2.6.22 -> LS 1.2.8...the upgrade was successful, except for the following problem that is plaguing me:

When I first started my business a few years ago I did not have a Canadian GST number as I was not large enough.  Halfway through last year (2006) we passed the mark to need to get a GST number, so I did so.  Since we had lots of invoices without the GST charged on them and I didn't want to change old invoices, I simply put (in SL) an ending date in the System->Taxes interface for the 0% GST tax, and then added a new line item with the 6% GST tax.  You will see what it looks like in LS now..

The problem comes when I open current invoices (either closed, or still open).  GST is not being calculated at all, the tax line is *always* empty...

Can someone please shed some light on this for me?


I look forward to any responses.

Regards,
Angus Jordan
