Issue description
PHP8 throws a TypeError when an empty string is used in basic arithmetic operations, where PHP7 would only issue a warning and silently convert to 0.
In some cases,
$tva_tx
is an empty string (I don't remember the precise context as it happened to a client several weeks ago).This results in
$tmptva
being also an empty string and causes a fatal error.
