The New Year brought several significant changes to tax codes nationwide. If you’re not sure if there have been any changes to sales tax in your area, our partners at Avalara recently published a list of expected 2018 sales tax changes.
For example, effective January 1, 2018, the New Jersey Sales and Use Tax Rate has been changed to 6.625%. Sage 100 users who operate in New Jersey will need to manually make this change in their system.
In Sage 100 or Sage 100cloud, you can setup and/or change Sales Taxes using the “Sales Tax Code Maintenance” and “Sales Tax Schedule Maintenance” windows in Library Master. The Sales Tax Code Maintenance screen allows you to set up for individual jurisdictions, which can then be applied to a Sales Tax Schedule. Customer(s), and Invoices then can have a Sales Tax Schedule associated with them.
Below, we’ll walk you through the four-step process to getting your system set up for Sales Tax. If making changes to existing records you’ll only need to follow steps 1 & 2.
If you are not sure or would like assistance please contact us and we can walk you through the process and answer any questions you have.
Want to get the most out of your system? We’re happy to offer flexible Sage 100 training options.
