Tax

In the Setup G/L Passoff window, these are the General Ledger accounts you use to post sales tax liability. You should enter a tax account for each tax code. The number of tax codes that display in the grid depends upon how many you have set up in the Options Configuration window (or Function MTX).

When you create a transaction in the Point-of-Sale, Open Item Maintenance, or Received on Account windows, the system passes off to the appropriate Tax account according to the tax code used in the transaction.

If you do not enter an account number for a tax code, the system passes off sales tax liability for that tax code to the generic Tax Account that you entered in POS and A/R Passoff.

These fields are numeric. You can enter up to four numbers in the first space, and up to three numbers in the second space.

The account numbers you enter must exist in the Chart of Accounts window.
