question

Hello Mark, Thank you for the reply. To start with, what I am trying to achieve with the above code was setting tax to the inventory item using IInventoryService. The above code was working fine earlier but for some reason now its throwing the above exception. All I want to do here is add tax to item using IInventoryService. So can you help me understand what is wrong ?

Hi @maninder,

The issue lies with using the IInventoryService in the first place. The InventoryConnector is the API that should be used by you, and is a wrapper for the IInventoryService class.

Alright Mark, Can you share an example or any link for the same please?

A quick update Mark, I used InventoryConnector. The code is as follows :-

        // initializing and connecting inventory here
        InventoryConnector inventoryConnector = new InventoryConnector(this, account, null);
        inventoryConnector.connect();

        // create gift tax
       TaxRate giftTax = new TaxRate().setName("GiftTax").setRate(1000l).setIsDefault(true);
       ////   this again throws same exception as above.
       giftTax = inventoryConnector.createTaxRate(giftTax);

Hi @maninder,

@Sam provided some code in the other Answer on this post.

I was able to get an "Access denied to package" error if my package was not recognized by my test merchant. Create a Quick Android App on your Developer Dashboard (https://www.clover.com/developers/login or https://sandbox.dev.clover.com/developers/login) and install it to your test merchant. This should resolve the SecurityException.

Hi Sam, I have created app with the all permission it contains INVENTORYW too also i able to create new inventory item through my application only the problem i getting is creating taxrate, if my issue with INVENTORYW then i should not be allowed to create inventory item but in my case i can create inventory item that means i have INVENTORY_W so do we get any idea or lead towards the problem i getting in createTaxRate. Is there any merchant setting or taxrate setting which i missing?

Hi Pavan, as in the email, seems like this is a bug. Thanks for bring it to our attention. We'll let you know when it's fixed.

@Sam hi we are tying to implement taxrate using https://sandbox.dev.clover.com/api_do... but not able to find any proper example for same it will be great you provide a example for same

@Pavan Create a Tax Rate POST /v3/merchants/{mid}/tax_rates

body:
{
      "name": "Test",
      "rate": 1500000,
      "isDefault": false
}

Make sure item has custom tax: POST /v3/merchants/{mId}/items/{itemId}

{
  "defaultTaxRates": false
}

THEN create association

POST /v3/merchants/{mId}/tax_rate_items

{
  "elements": [
    {
      "item": {
        "id": {item id}
      },
      "taxRate": {
        "id": {taxRate id}
      }
    }
  ]
}

Hi @Sam thank you for reply, we have implemented https://www.clover.com/api_docs/#!/in... (POST /v3/merchants/{mId}/tax_rates) to create tax and on successful tax creation setting tax to items using inventoryService.assignTaxRatesToItem(itemid, taxrates, resultStatus) ; which seems working here. It will be great if you keep us updated regarding android-sdk taxrate issue, thank you.
