Verify tax reports after an HPOS migration
A storage migration is a good moment to compare a few known order and refund events before relying on a full period.
Inspect the source record
Before changing storage, save a small report pack and note its event IDs, dates, and mapping revision.
Build a focused report
After WooCommerce reports synchronization complete, run the same TaxPack selection and compare source-event detail.
Read the result
Equal event IDs and recorded tax lines are a stronger check than comparing only one grand total.
A concrete example
One order and one refund that appear in both runs with the same stored tax lines provide a focused migration check.
Avoid this mistaken conclusion
Do not switch authoritative storage while synchronization is incomplete or assume TaxPack itself migrates WooCommerce data.
