[zaoky]

Steps to reproduce

1. Install Magento 2.0.7
2. create a new Tax Rate and zone by API/REST with the rate = 0

Expected result

1. new tax rate and zone create with rate = 0 for a rule that applies to non-taxable customers

Actual result

1. Error message appears:
   {
   "message": "%fieldName is a required field.",
   "parameters": {
   "fieldName": "percentage_rate"
   }
   }
   

Note

I can create a Tax Rate and Zone with rate = 0 through the admin page

@zaoky ... thank you for reporting. I have created internal ticket MAGETWO-56156 to track this issue.

@zaoky ... a possible work-around:

• the database table (tax_calculation_rate) that holds the Tax Rate "rate" column is set to 4 digits after the decimal place
• using the Tax Rate API, send in a rate of 0.00001 (as an example)
• the rate stored in the database table will be 0.0000 (zero)
• note that the API response will claim that the rate is 0.00001 however :(
