Tax Districts

There are two types of tax districts that may be added to the tax district database: single and combined. A single tax district has only one tax rate. A combined tax district is made up of two or three single tax districts that are used jointly to calculate tax. For example, with State tax set as 0.00 in the (LØ) Global Master Parameters screen, you could combine state, county and city taxes into one combined tax district. For more details concerning tax districts, see About Tax Districts.

 

Note: Combined tax districts can only be created using existing tax districts.

  1. Open the Tax District database by selecting it from the Databases menu or click graphics\TAXDISTRICT16.gif in the Customer window. The Tax District dialog box opens.

  2. In the Tax District dialog box, click Add or right-click the list box and click Add District to open a blank Tax District Detail dialog box.

  3. Enter the necessary information in the boxes. For information about each box, see In the Tax District Detail Dialog Box.

Note: Each tax district, whether single or combined, must be identified by a unique code.
