Getting started

Trace one WooCommerce order through a tax summary

A store-wide total is easier to trust when you can follow one source order through the summary and detailed files.

Inspect the source record

Open the order in WooCommerce and record its order ID, creation date, currency, province fields, and stored tax lines.

Build a focused report

Generate a TaxPack report that includes the order's date and current status, then download the summary and tax-line CSVs.

Read the result

Find the order ID among source event IDs and the tax-line CSV. Compare the stored rate ID and amount rather than merely matching the display label.

A concrete example

If order 410 has two tax lines, the detailed CSV should show the recorded lines while the summary groups them by mapped type and selected province.

Avoid this mistaken conclusion

Do not add the tax-line detail to the summary total; those files show two views of the same recorded amounts.
