Branding - Merge field for invoice tax total on DOCX Statement templates
If the Total Tax amount per invoice was available for statements, then the Statement could be used as a periodic Tax Invoice.

A major reason these specific fields aren’t available or consistent is the archaic state of the DOCX rendering engine. It can’t handle modern XML mapping or advanced conditional logic (like SKIPIF) reliably because it's running on nearly 20-year-old libraries. Modernizing the parser to OOXML v16 would allow for the robust field mapping we actually need. I've detailed the specific mapping failures and the path to a fix here: https://productideas.xero.com/forums/967115-invoices-quotes/suggestions/51245914-modernize-advanced-templates-full-support-for-mod
