Alright Im using the BambooInvoice software, and where I am, we have two sales taxes.

This is how they work

price of item * tax1 = Sum1Tax1
Sum1tax1 *tax2 = Final sales price

Currently, Bamboo invoice does this

Price of Item * tax1 = pricetax1
price of item * tax2 = pricetax2
Price of item + pricetax1 + pricetax2

and this is its code

$this->db->select('(SELECT SUM('.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.amount * '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.quantity * ('.$this->db->dbprefix('invoices').'.tax1_rate/100 * '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.taxable)) FROM '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').' WHERE '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.invoice_id=' . $invoice_id . ') AS total_tax1', FALSE);
  $this->db->select('(SELECT SUM('.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.amount * '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.quantity * ('.$this->db->dbprefix('invoices').'.tax2_rate/100 * '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.taxable)) FROM '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').' WHERE '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.invoice_id=' . $invoice_id . ') AS total_tax2', FALSE);
  $this->db->select('(SELECT SUM('.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.amount * '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.quantity + ROUND(('.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.amount * '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.quantity * ('.$this->db->dbprefix('invoices').'.tax1_rate/100 + '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoices').'.tax2_rate/100) * '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.taxable), 2)) FROM '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').' WHERE '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.invoice_id=' . $invoice_id . ') AS total_with_tax', FALSE);

How would we modify this code to reflect the actual taxation scheme for my area?

Thanks

    Use the built in invoice settings to change the taxes. If you insist on hard coding it. You could do something like this:

    <?php 
$customTaxRate_1 = 15;
$customTaxRate_2 = 25; //Norwegian sales tax phew :( But free health care :)
$this->db->select('(SELECT SUM('.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.amount * '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.quantity * ('.$this->db->dbprefix('invoices').'.'.$customTaxRate_1.'/100 * '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.taxable)) FROM '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').' WHERE '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.invoice_id=' . $invoice_id . ') AS total_tax1', FALSE);
$this->db->select('(SELECT SUM('.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.amount * '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.quantity * ('.$this->db->dbprefix('invoices').'.'.$customTaxRate_2.'/100 * '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.taxable)) FROM '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').' WHERE '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.invoice_id=' . $invoice_id . ') AS total_tax2', FALSE);
$this->db->select('(SELECT SUM('.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.amount * '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.quantity + ROUND(('.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.amount * '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.quantity * ('.$this->db->dbprefix('invoices').'.'.$customTaxRate_1.'/100 + '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoices').'.'.$customTaxRate_2.'/100) * '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.taxable), 2)) FROM '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').' WHERE '.$this->db->dbprefix('invoice_items').'.invoice_id=' . $invoice_id . ') AS total_with_tax', FALSE);
?>

    Please make sure to test properly. I am not familiar with the software. And my answer is based on the code you provided.
