Tax Rates
Tax Classes
A tax class is a collection of tax rates. Tax classes determine the tax rates that apply to menu items and service charges, and which tax rates can be reduced by discounts. A tax class can have up to 64 active tax rates, but typically a single tax class has one to three tax rates. By grouping multiple tax rates into a single tax class, you can easily see a record named Food Tax in other EMC modules without wondering which tax rates are active.
Menu Item Class: All menu item definitions in the menu item class are taxed using the tax class
Discount: Specific tax rates can receive a discount when a menu item is discounted
Service Charge: Specific types of services charges are taxed, such as banquet and room service transactions
State – 5% tax
City – 2% tax
In this example, both the state and city tax rates are active for the Food tax class. The total tax for a food item would be 7%.
Inclusive tax rate – 5%
Add-on tax rate – 5%
