coreSTORE - Sales: Tax Group Setup

If you have multiple tax levels, such as state and county, you can set up each level in coreSTORE by creating a Tax Group. This is useful for separating taxes for reporting purposes. In the steps below we have setup a tax group that includes State, County, and City tax rates.

1. Access the Company->Settings screen
   

2. Click the Taxes section
   

3. Start with entering the State level tax, enter a name and the tax rate
   

4. Click on Add Rate to Add the other Rates
   

5. Enter the other tax rates
   

6. You can name the group.
   

7. Cumulative Taxes

Cumulative tax rates calculate each tax based on the amount including the previous tax. Non-cumulative tax rates calculate each tax based only on the original amount, without including any other taxes.

In the US, typically tax rates are NOT cumulative.

8. Make sure to click Save, to save your changes.
