    Default Different descriptions for one tax rate?

    When I set a tax rate a description, I only get to get one description, not one per language. Is there any way to fix this?

    (When selling from Finland to consumers within EU, Finnish VAT is charged on most items. However, to a Finnish person the text should say "ALV 22%" and to an English speaking person "Finnish VAT 22%" so that they'll know what tax they are paying.)

    How about using "VAT/ALV 22%"

    I don't think there is any MOD for tax languages. Normally stating the tax discription should be the the language that the tax is "offically stated" as. However may countries have more than ONE language and may state it in more than one way. The above is the only way I can think of for now.

    "VAT/ALV 22%" does not really give enough information for some international clients (as they might be able to get foreign value added tax returned to them at the end of the year) but I guess it's good enough for now. Maybe if this gives me a headache later, I should try to make a mod for it. My list of "things I'll code if I have the time" just keeps on growing.
