Tax Groups
Use a SuiteTax tax group to combine several tax codes into one calculated rate. For example, if a store is subject to tax codes from four sources – city tax, transit tax, county tax, and state tax – you can combine all codes into a more manageable group.
For example, the group "Jurisdiction Name" has a total rate of 9%.
