Tax Table Programming 

See “

Tax Percentage Rate Programming

” on page 19 to set a simple tax percentage

In some cases, a tax that is entered as a percentage does not follow exactly the tax charts that 
apply in your area (even if the tax chart is based on a percentage).  In these cases, we 
recommend that you enter your tax using tax table programming.  This method will match tax 
collection exactly to the break points of your tax table.   

Before programming, obtain a copy of the tax table you wish to program.  You will need the 
printed tax table if you wish to determine the break point entries yourself.   

Note:  You can enter up to 60 break points.   

Determining Break Point Entries 

1.

 

Examine the printed tax table for the tax you are programming.   

2.

 

Refer to the “Tax Table Programming Example - Illinois 6% Tax Table” to help 
with this exercise.   

3.

 

Calculate the break point differences by subtracting the high side of the previous 
range from the high side of the dollar range.  

4.

 

Examine the pattern of break point differences to determine when the break 
points begin to repeat.  Mark the beginning break points that do not fit a pattern 
as “non-repeat breaks.”  Mark the break points that are repeating in a pattern as 
“repeat breaks.”

key.   

6.

For each non-repeat break point, up to the last non-repeat break point, enter the 
high side from the sale dollar range and press the appropriate 

TAX 

key.   

8.

 

For the last non-repeat break point, enter the high side from the sale dollar range 
and press the 

X/TIME

 key.  

9.

 

For each repeat break point, enter the high side from the sale dollar range and 
press the appropriate 

TAX 

key.   

10.
