To enable the tax functionality, you need to provide three fields to your transaction object.
The totalAmount which is the total amount including the taxes and flat fees
The subtotalAmount which is the total amount without the taxes and fees
The taxes which is an array of objects with each object being a separate tax or flat fee charge. Each tax object will have a taxName and taxAmount field. You can include up to 5 taxes or flat fees per transaction.
The totalAmount, subtotalAmount and taxAmount fields must be provided in cents. For example, if you have a total amount of $30.00, the totalAmount field will have a value of “3000”. The taxAmount must be specified as an absolute value and not as a percentage.
NOTE: Moneris doesn’t calculate or validate tax values. The amounts provided in the transaction request object will be printed on the receipt in a dollar value.
