Step 1: To create or manage a tax, click on Taxes from the white row.

Step 2: Select “Add Tax”

Step 3: Specify a name for the tax. Determine if tax will be applied as a Percentage or as a Fixed Amount. Add the tax amount and tap ‘Done’.

Applying a Tax

Once you create your taxes within a Catalog, they will be applicable on the item or order level in the Register app.

Order Level - Tax

To apply an order level tax, you may use the tax toggle on the white row of buttons in Register app and/or beneath the subtotal in Order Details.

Item Level - Tax

To apply a tax at the item level, select "Order Details" and click the more options dropdown to the left of the product. 

Any taxes that you've created may be toggled on or off on the item level here.

NOTE:  If there is no tax associated with the catalog that an item belongs to, you will not be able to toggle the sales tax option on or off on the item level.
