The report did not account for custom taxes[ created in the Admin's **Promotions & Taxes** module](/en/docs/tutorials/creating-surchargestaxes), which means it didn’t include values specified as `CustomTax`.\n\nThe **Taxes** column now displays the sum of the taxes added at Checkout (`Tax`) and the taxes created in **Promotions & Taxes** (`CustomTax`).\n\nFor stores that do not apply taxes or whose total amount of taxes is 0, the **Taxes** column will be displayed empty in the report, so as not to affect the experience of clients who use this data structure.\n\n## Why did we make this change?\n\nThe previous report did not contain information on custom taxes created in the **Promotions & Taxes** module (`CustomTax`). For this reason, retailers using this configuration could not see the total amount of taxes being charged.\n\nWith the change, the total amount of taxes applied to each order is now shown in the **Taxes** column. It increases the accuracy of data for packing slips.\n\n## What needs to be done?\n\nNo action is needed. The change will be implemented automatically in all VTEX stores. From now on, all order reports will be generated in the new format.\n\nLearn how to export orders in our tutorial [Export orders in Orders management](/en/docs/tutorials/exporting-orders-in-orders-module) and learn more about the report structure in our article [Order report](/en/docs/tutorials/order-report)."}
