Allow same product to have multiple Vat percentages for same country

Litium is presented as, Multi-channel, B2B and B2C both. This means, the Taxation domain of Litium covers a much broader set of tax rules than simply being only "ECommerce selling on web".

There are easily instances where the same product ends up in two different VAT rates even within the same country, and as at Litium 7.0 this scenario is not supported, because of a "missing feature" in Litium globalization domain model.

 

Litium do NOT need to support all VAT scenarios,

But Litium need to have Support to Support for any VAT scenario, and Litium entity model should not be a limitation to implement business logic by partner developers; instead Litium entity model should support ease of development and flexibility when required.

 

The tax rules are complex, for Sweden, read following article for Vat complexity:

Proposal:

Alternative A:

Allow product to be connected to multiple Tax Classes.

Alternative B:

Litium can allow to create Country entities independent of the geographic country. Then, multiple country-TaxClass connections can exist, making it possible to define different VAT percentages.

Alternative C:

Instead of having Country To TaxClassLink, have Channel-TaxClass Link.
