Configure POS Taxes

Subsidiary Tax Engine

Oracle NetSuite Restaurant Operations uses SuiteTax to manage most tax configurations. To generate the required tax records, NetSuite must identify the countries in which your subsidiaries operate. For POS locations imported as new NetSuite subsidiaries, you must configure the tax engine for each subsidiary.

All tax definitions imported from the POS system must be mapped to the appropriate NetSuite tax type and tax code.

Table 10-7 Tax Definition Mapping

Tax Definition	Description
Tax Type	SuiteTax generates the required tax types for supported countries. For countries that use Value Added Tax (VAT), the tax type is typically named VAT_<CountryCode>. For example: VAT_NL for the Netherlands VAT_DE for Germany For countries that do not use VAT, review the available SuiteTax tax types or see SuiteTax for information about the applicable tax configuration.
Tax Code	SuiteTax generates the required tax codes for supported countries. Depending on the country's tax regulations, multiple tax codes may be created, such as Standard Rate, Reduced Rate, and Zero Rate.
