This is just because the starter kit uses the orderline prices and order prices that is supposed to be used when you have NOT ticked the Prices in DB incl VAT. If you tick it - you will have to use a couple of different properties - depending on what you want to display. So this is totally normal - we cant include all scenarios in one and same UI :)
In writing this reply I realised why it has to work with 'Prices in DB incl. VAT' setting is NOT ticked.
I was going to say that if the £100 price includes VAT (because the 'Prices in DB incl. VAT' setting is ticked) and the VAT group for the order has been set to 0%, why is the total to pay is still £100 when it should be £100 - VAT.
I realise now that you cannot do that calculation because with multiple VAT groups possible you wouldn't necessarily know which rate to use? Unless you used the default for the country?
Prices in DB incl. VAT setting
I'm always getting confused by VAT *sigh* so correct me if I'm wrong here.
Using the starter kit, the price for the product is £100 for all the examples.
The 'Prices in DB incl. VAT' setting is NOT ticked the VAT group for the order has been set to 20%.
You can see it has added the VAT which is good.
The 'Prices in DB incl. VAT' setting is NOT ticked the VAT group for the order has been set to 0%.
No VAT has been added as you would expect.
It's when you tick the 'Prices in DB incl. VAT' setting that I'd expect things to work a little different.
The 'Prices in DB incl. VAT' setting is ticked the VAT group for the order has been set to 20%.
The VAT element is worked out and displayed as you would expect.
The 'Prices in DB incl. VAT' setting is ticked the VAT group for the order has been set to 0%.
Zero VAT is displayed as you would expect, but I would also expect the total price to have been re-reduced to remove the VAT amount?

We ALWAYS used the NOT ticked setting
Kind regards
