Hi 👋 no, as far as I'm aware this is not possible to override an automatic tax calculation, you would need to manually calculate and pass those values instead.
I'm not sure I'm grasping the next part of your question about what you want shown for the total, would you mind trying to rephrase that part of the question?
Sure - so basically, I want my customers (connected accounts) to be able to go to their tax reporting page, generate the report using Stripe, and not be forced to do any additional work. Currently, Stripe automatically includes my application fee in their Total Gross Sales
And it records tax as if the connected account is responsible for paying tax on the application fee
I understand why it functions like this - Stripe is simply reflecting the total of the invoice
But my customer isn't responsible for tax on the application fee - I am responsible for that
So I don't want them to be forced to subtract some amount from their tax report
To get to the proper amount
Gotcha, I think you're going to need to build custom logic to handle that then.
What would that look like?
And where would that happen?
Would I make the application fee tax exempt? Then the Net Taxable Sales would reflect the proper amount
Then I guess I would have to run a manual sales tax calculation on the application fee at some other time
Might still be a little confusing with Total Gross Sales being different though...
As far as I know there is no way to make the application fee tax exempt. I don't what the Net Taxable Sales you're referring to is or what it shows, same goes for Total Gross Sales.
We now have a standalone API that can be used for calculating tax amounts that may be useful here:
https://stripe.com/docs/tax/calculating
Sorry - those are the wording on the generated tax reports from Stripe
It feels like I'm going to have to record all sales tax results and then present this info from my own site to my customers
Ah, gotcha, that's why I didn't recognize them, we aren't familiar with reports in this forum (we primarily focus on the API).
Or - do you know how long it takes to get approved for the new beta API for taxes and connected accounts? I submitted it yesterday
And would that new API give me access to these reports? Or the data that they generate?
Then I could recreate them on my site
I don't, we aren't involved with most betas, so we typically don't know have a deep understanding of what they offer or how long it takes to get approved for them.
Ok thank you
