So far, it's required for shipments to Ontario, Alberta, BC, Saskatchwan & Nova Scotia.
You can see that other companies are already doing it like
Sears and
Tiger Direct.
April 1, 2010 Ontario is changing their fees and adding a multitude of new products including DVD Players, MP3 Players, Cameras, Digital Photo Frames, Car Audio and Video and the list keeps going. We are an electronics distributor so we have in stock all of the above under many different brands, models, etc. Hundreds of items in our inventory are affected by this and we can't manage all this with item codes and alerts!
Softrak is providing a really good solution, but it only accomodates 1 province. Can your programmers add more User Definable cost fields to IC? My opinion is there should be at least 13. One for every province and territory in Canada. Some of the provinces will remain at 100% of $0.00 cost but sure enough levies will be introduced in the coming months to more provinces. I need at least 4 more User Definable Cost fields just to set the levies up for what is already required.
Please help!
