Manage Project Sales Tax Setups

Use this screen to specify which percentage of taxable billings for a given project are subject to specific sales tax codes.

To calculate sales tax on a project billing, you must assign all applicable sales tax codes to that project in this screen. If a record does not exist in this screen for a particular project/sales tax code, no sales tax is calculated for that sales tax code on the project's bill. You can set up the actual general ledger accounts that are subject to sales tax on the Manage Taxable Sales Account screen.

Set up the project sales tax information only at the invoice project level, that is, at the same project level at which the billing formula is set up. If your billing formula is set up at the highest level of a project, you do not need to set up separate sales tax information for each of the lower levels of that project.

If you want automatic calculation of sales tax, assign sales tax codes and percentages to a project before you calculate billings for that project. You must first set up the necessary sales tax codes on the Manage Sales or Value Added Taxes screen. You must also assign taxable accounts to the sales tax codes on the Manage Taxable Sales Account screen.
