Tax Codes By Postal/Zip


System Maintenance Menu -> Configure System Settings -> Accounting Tab -> Accounts Receivable -> Tax Codes -> ADVANCED button -> Tax Codes By Postal/Zip

Tax codes can be maintained for the different postal areas in the Tax Codes By Postal/Zip window by clicking on the ADVANCED button in the Tax Codes.

It applies only to the Enhanced Tax processing as activated in the Company Taxing Parameters.

Default tax codes setup by shipping Postal/Zip code are used if there are no taxes found for the GEOCode or the Ship To City on the Contract, Invoice, Reservation, Quote, etc.
Refer to Tax Maintenance Overview for the ENHANCED Tax Rules that determine which taxes apply.

When Postal/Zip code taxes are used, any exact match for a Code applies (i.e. when the From Code is the same as the To Code) over any match found in any code range. If no exact match is found and the Postal/Zip code does not fall into a range either, then the blank Postal/Zip code range applies.

To setup Postal/Zip code default taxes, the prompts are:

SEARCH
This search field is provided to easily find the Tax records based on partial matches to the 'ZIP Code', 'ZIP Description' or 'State' values.
FROM CODE
Enter a starting shipping Postal/Zip code for which taxes should be setup.

TO CODE
Enter the same Postal/Zip code to create an exact Postal/Zip code record, for which taxes should be setup, or enter an ending Postal/Zip code to create a range of codes for which the same taxes apply.
Rather than an exact match it can be useful to enter the "To Code" as Postal/Zip code with a suffix of -9999 to cover all zip codes in the area.
i.e. From Code: 17703 and To Code: 17703-9999

Note: When Postal/Zip code taxes are used, any exact match for a Code applies (i.e. when the From Code is the same as the To Code) over any match found in any code range.


DESCRIPTION
Enter the description for this specific Postal/Zip code or Postal/Zip code range.

STATES
