Tax Calculations
Automatic tax
When your POS terminal is programmed with a tax table (or tax rate) and the tax status of an individual
department or PLU is set for taxable, it computes the tax automatically on any item that is entered into the
department directly or indirectly via a related PLU.
Manual tax
Your POS terminal allows you to enter tax manually after item entries.
After items entry, enter tax amount and press the
TAX
key.
Tax deletion
You can delete the automatic tax on the taxable 1, taxable 2, taxable 3, or taxable 4 subtotal of each
transaction by pressing the corresponding TAX SHIFT key followed by the subtotal, then the
TAX
key after
the subtotal is displayed.
NOTE
If any of the media keys (i.e. cash, check 1 thru check 4, or charge 1 thru charge 8) is programmed for tax
delete in the PGM2 mode, the tax can be deleted without using the procedures above. In this case pressing
a corresponding media key that has been programmed will aways cause the selected tax to be deleted.

key or of the PLU key by pressing the
TAX1

SHIFT
