If you want to pass off sales tax liability information to separate sales tax accounts, use the procedure below. If you don't set up separate sales tax accounts, the system passes off all sales tax amounts to the sales tax account you specified when you set up POS and A/R Passoff.
You should have already completed the procedure "Setting Up POS and A/R Automatic Passoff". If you have not, click here.
Before you begin this procedure, all of the Tax accounts to which you want the system to pass off must exist in the Chart of Accounts window.
In Function MCT (accessible from the Network Access Main Menu), make sure the "Automated Pass-off To General Ledger?" flag is set to Y. If it is set to N, type a Y in that field and press <Change>.
Click the arrow to the right of the Type box, and select Tax Accounts from the drop-down list.
Click Display. The tax account types display in the grid.
Click in the Account column of the first account type in the grid (the first tax code you have on file).
Enter your general ledger account number for this tax code.
Repeat steps 4 and 5 for each subsequent account type in the grid, until each one has an account number associated with it.
For a definition of each account type in the grid, click here.
Click Change.
Multistore: Passing off tax liability information by store is possible only if you have separate tax codes set up for each store in the Options Configuration window (or Function MTX).
