Advanced Tax Programming
Use the instructions in this chapter only if you wish to determine tax program entries yourself. See
“Programming Tax” on page 14 to enter a simple tax rate.
Important Note: After you have entered your tax program, test for accuracy
by entering several transactions of different pound amounts. Carefully check
to make sure the tax charged by the cash register matches the tax on the
printed tax chart for your area. As a merchant, you are responsible for
accurate tax collection. If the cash register is not calculating tax accurately,
contact your local SAM4s Dealer for assistance.
Tax Rate Programming
You can program up to four separate taxes on the
SAM4s ER-260
