Tax Calculation

Hi,

We have a case where:
1. Tax should be calculated for a item when sold to Canada
2. Tax should not be calculated for the same item if sold to Florida.

Any insights how can be handled in SL 6.5?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions on this.

Hi,
This is the same as the tax is set up in the demo0060 database.

I believe these are the basic steps:
1. define tax categories of taxable/exempt
2.  assign taxable category to inventory items
3.  set up individual taxes (Canada, Florida) in Tax Maintenance.  Assign to 
categories on the Tax dates/Categories tab. 
4.  Set up tax default tax IDs in the customer screen/Defaults tab.  You can 
default from the tax from this tab or from the customer ship-to address (the 
first option on this tab).

You may want to set up a FL tax at 0% and then you will have tax reporting 
available if necessary for those items which were shipped without tax.  I 
don't think that is a requirement though.
