Tax Group

A tax group is a set of tax codes, usually describing what is sold or bought: "standard-rated goods", "exempt goods", "services". A document line's taxes are the codes that are in both its tax group and its Tax Zone.

Scenarios​

  • Goods at the standard rate, plus further tax for unregistered buyers. Group "Standard goods": standard sales tax and further tax. The zone of registered buyers lists only the standard tax, so registered buyers get one tax and unregistered buyers two.
