EU Tax	In this field, you can specify the tax type under which EU acquisition tax should be reported in tax settlement printouts for the current tax reporting unit.
Tax Level	This field shows the tax level to which the tax code you are creating should belong. The available options are Tax Level 1, Tax Level 2, and Tax Level 3.
Tax Date	In some countries, legal requirements demand that the entry date of each registration is what determines the tax settlement period in which the entry belongs, while in other countries, the period is determined by the invoice date of the registration. In this field, you can specify for the current tax reporting unit which of the two methods should apply to companies belonging to the reporting unit. Each G/L entry contains a field called “Tax Date” to which either the entry date or the invoice date of the registration depending on the value in this field on the tax reporting unit assigned to the company which the entry concerns is automatically transferred when the entry is posted. When you create tax settlements in the Tax Settlement workspace, Maconomy uses the tax date registered on each individual G/L entry to determine whether the entry is covered by the period for which settlement is carried out.
Tax Code	This field shows a tax code for the entry on the current line if the line represents a G/L entry.
Tax Rate	In this field, you can specify the tax rate for the current tax code.
EU Tax	In this field, you can specify the tax type under which EU acquisition tax should be reported in tax settlement printouts for the current tax reporting unit.
Calculate Tax of Tax	If this field is set to “Yes,” cumulative tax will be calculated on the different tax levels. Consider the following example which shows the difference between basic and cumulative tax calculation: If three tax levels of 5% national tax, 7% regional tax, and 8% local tax are calculated on a base amount of $100, the total amount after applicable taxes will be $120 (100+5+7+8 = 120). Conversely, if the three tax levels are added using the cumulative method, the total amount after applicable taxes will be $121.34 (100 x 1.05 = 105; 105 x 1.07 = 112.35, 112.35 x 1.08 = 121.34).
Popup 1-4	In these four fields, you can select various information about the tax rates. These are pop-up fields, which means that you can choose from the options created for each field. They are created as Tax Popup 1 - Tax Popup 4 in the Popup Fields workspace. This information is transferred to tax settlement entries so that the tax reports can be group by the new tax type fields.
