Tax ProgrammingThe ER-900 has the capability to support four separate taxes.Taxes can be calculated as either a straight percentage rate of between .001% and 99.999%,or a 60 break point tax table. Each tax may be either an add-on tax (added to the cost of ataxable item), or a value added tax (VAT) that is included in the price of the item.Tax rate 4 may be set to function as the Canadian Goods & Services Tax (GST). If Tax 4 isdesignated as GST, table programming for the rate is not allowed.Definitions for tax rates 1, 2, 3 & 4 are made as part of tax programming. If you are entering a tax rate (add-on or VAT), see "Straight Percentage Tax RateProgramming" to enter the percentage rate. If you are entering a tax table, see “Tax Table Programming” to enter the tax breakpoints. If you are entering a Canadian Goods and Services Tax (GST), use tax rate 4 for theGST tax, and use tax rates 1, 2 and/or 3 for any other provincial tax or taxes. See"Straight Percentage Tax Rate Programming" to enter the GST status and percentagerate.Important Note: After you have entered your tax program(s), test for accuracy byentering several transactions of different dollar amounts. Carefully check to make surethe tax charged by the cash register matches the tax on the printed tax chart for yourarea. As a merchant, you are responsible for accurate tax collection.
