VAT Problems

Hey there!

Here in good old Germany, we have some special laws about vouchers and i cannot fix the problem by my own. In Germany the tax law knows 2 different kind of vouchers / coupons: 1) one purpose 2) Multipurpose vouchers. The last ones are the ones we want.

These kind of multi-purpose vouchers are added with VAT in the moment, that the client uses it. Before, it is tax free.

For example: the client buys a voucher for 50€. Ok, i can make this product “50€-voucher” taxfree. Then, lateron, when the client uses the voucher code for a product which costs 100€. Then, pdf vouchers says (with 19% VAT), the VAT all in all is 7,98€. But thats wrong, it should be 15,97 €, because in the moment the client redeems the voucher, there the VAT for the vouchers pops up, too.

So, in other words: how can i manage, that the VAT is calculated not with the reduced amount, but with the complete price (how it would be without voucher). So: first VAT-calculation and afterwards reducing the price. Im sorry, my english is bad, hope you get my problem. Are there some ideas?
