I am already using the upgraded product called “Store Exporter Deluxe”. What is a reasonable limit/offset I should target? Could I do 1000 orders at a time?
Do you have an idea where i go to allocate more memory/cpu resources? In Godaddy cPanel or is it within WordPress Dashboard somewhere?

In reply to: [WooCommerce] Tax-exempt coupon code?Hi Judy,
I forwarded your info to my developer. Hopefully she will reach out to you. I haven’t been in contact with her for a few months, but I’ve messaged her if I can post contact details/plugin availability details here. I’ll let you know when she responds.
I am very happy with her plugin. It works perfectly. For any given coupon code, I can choose which taxes (Country, State) etc, should be exempt. It’s amazingly simple and effective. Of course, in my business, I only have the need to exempt California resellers, so I’m only using a small subset of its potential.
One thing I did do is to also create my own Ninja Form on my site so that my resellers can digitally submit their “CA Resale Certificate” from a simple page on my website. By state law I have to have one “on file” for anyone I’m exempting. The Ninja Form automates that process. If you’re using Ninja Forms and you have similar need in your state, email me at [email protected], and I’ll shoot you a link where you can check out what I’ve built.

In reply to: [WooCommerce] Tax-exempt coupon code?I tried that method for a while, CrazyDude, but it is really a bad idea. The reason is that you are technically still collecting a “tax line item”, and then giving the money back. The customer’s receipt could get you are them in trouble at tax time if audited.
Also, unless you do some reverse-accounting at the end of the year, you’ll accidentally pay to the state those tax line items you collected, not realizing that you backed out the money. You’ll be losing that money by giving it to the state accidentally. Follow?
As I said above, I had a custom plugin made for me that does what you want. A coupon code plugin that prevents taxes from being added when the code is used. I don’t think my programmer has packaged or uploaded it yet to www.remarpro.com. If you want I’ll send her this link, and hopefully she will reach out to you. You got an email address I hit you up offline?

In reply to: [WooCommerce] Tax-exempt coupon code?Thank you, Linda!
I had already come across those plugins, but I really want one that operates on a coupon code. I don’t want to have to set up roles, or even require the periodic resale customers to log in or even have to remember a login. I don’t want to have to administrate logins, or even worry about that. It’s easiest with a coupon code. I make each coupon code unique to the customer and base it on their email address, so they can’t share it without us spotting it right away.
So, since I wrote my above post, I’ve hired a developer to write me a custom plugin. It allows me to key in the Reseller’s resale certificate number I have on file, and then choose from a drop-down which existing coupon codes and taxes line items (I’d previously created in the standard woo setup) for which this code will be tax-exempt. It’s super cool, super simple. The regular woocommerce coupon functionality still works like normal. Her script just suppresses taxes.
I’m encouraging her to package it and make available on www.remarpro.com. Every woocommerce store, in taxing states, that sells to both consumers and resellers needs tax exempt functionality. I have to believe a lot of folks will like the coupon code approach.

Acutake, Sorry, I know this is off your topic, but can you tell me how you managed to start a topic on this www.remarpro.com forum?? I only seem to be able to reply to existing topics but not start my own? I can’t find a single button or hypertext when I’m visiting any given subforum so as to ask my OWN question. It seems the only way I can ask this question to reply to an existing question, so I’m sorry but just desparate. Do I need to be a paid member or something? Thanks!

In reply to: [Product Reviews Import Export for WooCommerce] Export all reviewsI know this is off-topic for this thread, but I’m desperate. I can’t seem to find a button, link or any way of starting a question thread in the support threads. Can anybody tell me how to ask a question on this or any www.remarpro.com forum? My question is a pre-sales question I have about product capabilities. I’m logged in to www.remarpro.com, and I’ve tried subscribing to several forums, but no luck. What I am missing? Perhaps a “START THREAD” button is being suppressed for me?
To cut to the chase, I want to know if this Product Review Import/Export plugin would allow me to import reviews from my old Weebly site that I now have in a CSV. Will import have trouble if customer’s original order number is not part of the upload? In other words will there be database corruption issues if the reviews can’t be associated with an existing order already in the database, or can it just be mapped to the Product SKU only?
Thank you!

In reply to: [WooCommerce] Coupons adding sales tax to coupon amount?I have a somewhat related question. I want to set up a coupon code that will give a given customer a 15% discount when he uses it. Simple enough. But because he is a reseller, the purchase should be tax exempt. (He has previously filed his Resale Certificate with me, so I don’t want to charge him sales tax). Is there a way to set up a coupon code he can use that will give him the 15% discount, and either suppress the calculation of sales taxes, or back out the sales taxes.
I have to believe this is a common need. Any company that sells to both taxable consumers and to tax-exempt businesses would need a way to suppress taxes being added at the transaction (not just product) level. I’ve seen a post where someone figured out how to do this if the customer is logged in to the site, but my customers don’t log in. I’d rather solve it with a coupon.
I can imagine that there is a way for me to figure out how to come up with a single discount percentage I could use that would not only give the customer his 15% discount but also back out the 9.5% CA sales taxes will be added to the discounted price. But I suck at math. Can anybody take a crack at what that discounted number would be?
