TAX RATE
Four different tax rates can be programmed on your cash register. Each tax rate can be linked directly to a
Department key or by pressing the [TAX 1] or [TAX 2] keys before ringing up an entry. Extra Option: If desired, a
procedure is offered to eliminate the tax rate from printing on transaction receipts, for details see Flag 36, on Page
61.
Each Tax Rate can be programmed as follows:
a. As an ADD-ON RATE (used in the USA) - which means the tax amount prints separately on the receipt.
Add-on Tax is most common in the United States. Add-on Tax can be programmed as either a fixed-rate
which charges tax based on a percentage, or using the tax table codes, which is a calculation based on an
approved tax chart issued by your local or state government.
b. VAT (Value Added Tax) - which means that the tax amount is included in the price of the item.
c. CANADIAN TAX SYSTEM - allows the programming of GST/PST tax system required in Canada.
For Canadian tax programming, see Appendix 3.
NOTE: Tax 1 through Tax 3 can be set as either an add-on fixed tax rate, a VAT tax or tax table rate. Tax 4
can be set as a fixed add-on rate or a VAT tax only.
