Object documentationTax: Tax Step

 

You set the rate at which tax is applied to a range of values in the Tax Steps tab on the Tax Maintenance screen. Each step represents the amount of tax that is charged between the amounts listed in the step fields. For example, if step 1 is set to .25 and step 2 is set to .30, then the tax charged on sales between .25 and .29 inclusive is .01. Step values are used if the sales amount is within the specified range. For sales amounts beyond the step values, either the break point or tax rate are used. If a break point is specified, its amount must be included in the step values.
