Definition

The sales tax code is used in place of a tax category that must be taken into account for tax returns to the tax authorities.

The tax codes are unique to each country. For each tax code, the tax rate and other properties are stored in the system.

Procedure

For tax-exempt or non-taxable transactions, tax codes with the percentage 0 should be used if the corresponding transactions are to be entered in the tax returns.

Note

When tax rates are changed by legislation, new tax codes have to be defined. The old codes with the old tax rates must remain in force until there are no more open items that use this tax code.
