Vat Number per Vendor

Store Builder in detail Multi-Vendor Edition
#1

Hi

I have searched extensively in the forum and have found a few posts mentioning this but no solutions.



I need to add a Vat number per vendor. To be entered/edited in the vendor details form in admin and vendors admin as necessary.



This vat number then needs to be added to the invoices sent to the customer.



I am sure this is possible and I somewhat surprised that this is not a standard feature.

Hi

I have had no option but to take an undignified way of doing this,

As I do not need the ZIP Code field in the addresses, I changed the text in the forms for admin and vendor to Vat Number



I then edited the invoice.tpl file and move the zip code to the bottom of the address, This has added the Vendors Vat number to the invoices.

My issue now is were do I edit the print invoice and supplier invoice in version 4.0.3 multi vendor

I see a file that print_invoice.tpl but it only calls invoice.tpl

But the changes I made in invoice.tpl do not show up when I select print.



Can someone point me to the correct files.

Did you see: http://cs-cart.seoni…vat-number.html



Also you can just edit profile fields and add a field called VAT nr: CS-Cart Documentation — CS-Cart 4.15.x documentation

Hi Flow

I think you misunderstand, the addon that you have pointed out validates the Vat numbers from a customer prospective.

Checking that the company buying the goods is Vat registered in the EU and then subtract the VAT from the price.



Good addon but not what we need.



Also adding the field to the profile fields does not add it to the Vendor information form. Only the customer checkout, shipping and Contact forms.



It is important for us to be able to put the merchants unique VAT number on every invoice that is issued from the store.

We are in the disability sector and one of the unusual things is that an end user of a piece of equipment can reclaim the VAT. They do not need to be a company.

But the invoice must have the Vat number of the supplier on it.

If I can not put the VAT number on the store invoices. It would mean having to reissue ever invoice with a VAT number on it.
