WooCommerce tax settings

Review compound tax lines without recalculating them

WooCommerce can mark a tax rate as compound, which affects its checkout calculation order.

Inspect the source record

Inspect the tax-rate row's Compound setting and the source order's separate stored tax lines.

Build a focused report

Map each rate ID to the reviewed reporting type and use the tax-line CSV to see each recorded amount.

Read the result

TaxPack reports the line amounts WooCommerce stored; it does not recompute the compound base or determine whether the configuration was legally correct.

A concrete example

An order with GST and a compound provincial line should retain two source lines and two mapped types in the report.

Avoid this mistaken conclusion

Do not sum percentages or reapply one rate to the other inside a report spreadsheet. Verify configuration at the source.
