I'm trying to better understand how to get a clean configuration for fiscal positions and taxes for multiple jurisdictions. We operate globally, so incur and collect various taxes including VAT in the UK and much of Europe, and GST in Australia.
The first localisation that I install (usually on database create) creates fiscal positions for the localisation. Doing an install of a second localisation adds records to the various template tables; account_tax_template, account_fiscal_position_template, etc, but does not create records in the account_tax, account_fiscal_position, etc tables. If I manually create a fiscal position and select the country of the installed localisation and provide a tax id in the correct form, I get prompted to install taxes for the localisation, and this works fine. Great..!
Where I'm missing something is getting the fiscal positions created for a localisation. There doesn't seem to be any menu item that gives me installed localisations with the option to install fiscal positions, taxes, etc. I can see some actions in the account module such as "action_account_tax_template_form" which have nothing referencing them. Is this something that was inadvertently removed from Community when a lot of the accounting was, without considering how users were going to have multiple fiscal positions installed?
