Inactivating or Deleting Tax Codes

If you have a tax code you don't use and don't want it to appear in your lists, you can inactivate or delete it.

Important:

Don't delete the UNDEF tax code provisioned by NetSuite. It's used when NetSuite can't figure out the correct tax code for transactions imported into the system using CSV or Web Services.

To inactivate a tax code:

1. Go to Setup > Accounting > Taxes > Tax Codes.

2. Check the Show Inactives box.

3. Check the box in the Inactive column next to the tax code record.

4. Click Submit.

The tax code won't show up in the Tax Codes list unless you check the Show Inactives box, and won't be available for selection on transactions, reports, and records.

To delete a tax code:

1. Go to Setup > Accounting > Taxes > Tax Codes.

2. Click Edit next to the tax code.

3. Click Delete. A confirmation message is shown.

4. Click OK to confirm the deletion.
