Taxes check box problem

[Christian Choquette]

I have a form that need a check box to add or not taxes to the right column. So the unit price must be multiplied by the quantity and if the check box is checked, it added taxes to the last column. The problem, is when I check the other check box below, it remove the taxes of the first line. Can somebody help me with this?

Here’s my script and a visual of the form to help understand:

this.getField("Text Field 21").value=this.getField("Text Field 18").value*this.getField("Text Field 181").value;

var tax_rate = 0.13;

var subtotal = Number(this.getField("Text Field 21").valueAsString);

if (this.getField("AddTax").valueAsString=="Off")

event.value = subtotal;

else event.value = subtotal * (1+tax_rate);

Are you using any other scripts? Can you share file?

You need to change field calculation order. Select prepare form tool -> click on 'More' -> then 'Set field calculation order' make sure fields that should calculate first are up on the list and fields that calculate last are down.

EDIT: it should look something like this:

Hi Nesa,

It didn’t help with my problem. Try check and uncheck the second, third or fourth check Box. This changes the first price on the right column.

Thanks a lot!

Use this for  "Text Field 21" also update other fields with same script just change field names:

var subtotal= Number(this.getField("Text Field 18").value)*Number(this.getField("Text Field 181").value);
var tax_rate = 0.13;
if (this.getField("AddTax").valueAsString=="Off")
event.value = subtotal;
else event.value = subtotal * (1+tax_rate);

And don't forget about field calculation order.
