I'm trying to set up a discount coupon to offer a discount of a fixed amount rather than a percentage when the appropriate coupon code is entered. The discount I want to offer is a fixed £30 providing the sale is at least £100.
There are 3 options (other than the no coupon option) relating to VAT - these are (1) cart val ex tax, (2) cart value inc actual tax, and (3) cart value inc default tax.
The £30 discount I want to offer is a total discount, i.e. inc VAT, i.e.£25+VAT.
If I set the discount value as £30, all 3 options grant £36 discount, i.e. £30+VAT. This is not what I want. If I enter a discount of £30 I want the the discount to be £30 and not £36. I assume that the option selected is ignored as the discount is a fixed amount, but do I have to calculate it as an ex-VAT figure or should Actinic take care of that for me? If I state to my customers their discount is £30, and we set it at £25 (ex-VAT) there will be some who will moan they are only getting £25 discount.
I don't mind entering it as £25 ex-VAT but can it be shown on the invoice as a VAT-inclusive deduction at the very end of the calculation?
