[SOLVED] Paypal Shipping, Handling, Discounts & taxes Totals

Hi everyone,

Please go easy on me, as this my first post :-[ . I am currently setting up an OpenCart site using version 1.5.1 and seem to have everything up and running except for one small problem with the transfer of the shipping and tax totals to Paypal when using the Paypal Standard module included with OpenCart. The amounts themselves are correct it is the way they are displayed in Paypal that I am wanting to remain constant in the transition from the OpenCart checkout to Paypal. The Paypal account is a verified business account if that influences anything.

The totals in OpenCart checkout appear as below and this is ideally how I would like them to be transferred to Paypal:

Product $13.00
Sub-Total $13.00
Shipping $6.00
Tax $1.95
Total $20.95

When the totals are transferred to Paypal however, the way the totals are displayed changes to the layout below:

Product $13.00
Shipping, Handling, Discounts & Taxes $6.00
Item Total $20.95
Total $20.95

Is there anyway of stopping Paypal from displaying the "Shipping, Handling, Discount & Taxes" as one total and have them display exactly as they were in OpenCart with shipping, tax and potentially any discounts, separated out into their respective totals.

I am sure there will be someone who has wanted to do this before, and perhaps I am entering incorrect search terms when searching the forum, however I haven't been able to find anything on the topic so far. I apologise in advance if this post is tedious for the experts on the forum but your help to resolve this little issue would be hugely appreciated. :)
