Thanks David. That is an idea I had not considered.
I have added a promotion that adds a flat amount to the order. However
for 1 item on the order I get 3 promotions added (tripling up the added
fee)! And for each increment of the quantity 2 more promotion lines are
added (so for a quantity of 2 I have 5 promos, 3 -> 7, etc). Very
strange.
Also, restricting the action or entire promotion by the product's top
level category seems to have no effect on whether the promo is added to
the order or not.
Finally, can promos be restricted to apply to only a specific taxAuthGeoId?
Is there anywhere I can find good explanations on how promos work and
the correct way to set them up?
Thanks,
--Tom

You can create a "Promotion" that will cause an adjustment to be added
to the cart, and thereby to the order.
The "Promotion" can be for a positive amount, ie a charge and not a
discount, and you can set any OrderAdjustmentType you want on it.

I agree. It is a tax, however it is a flat tax not a percentage.
One other wrinkle I have is that the fee may also have sales tax
applied on top of it.
I am using the latest SVN version of opentaps and a flat tax doesn't
seem to be possible, so I thought I would see if anyone else has
already tackled the problem. If not, I will go ahead and code the
support myself.
Thanks,

Hi Tom
Regardless of what it is called it just sounds like another tax to
me and
should be treated as such.

Has anyone implemented an added recycling fee (like a bottle

their products. If so, how did you go about it?
What I am trying to do is add a government mandated recycling fee on
specific products in specific geographic areas, as different fees will
apply according to the local rules.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
