Use source event IDs to audit a TaxPack total

A province/type total is easier to verify when its contributing order and refund event IDs remain visible.

Inspect the source record

Choose one summary group and note its source_event_ids, then open those records in WooCommerce.

Build a focused report

Use the IDs to filter the detailed CSVs while keeping the unchanged original downloads for later review.

Read the result

The same order can contribute to multiple type groups if it has several tax lines; follow event IDs rather than counting group rows as orders.

A concrete example

A GST group listing events 101 and 103 means those events contributed tax lines; it does not imply there were only two store orders in the period.

Avoid this mistaken conclusion

Do not mistake a group row count for an order count or revenue figure. The source IDs explain the tax grouping.
