Sales Taxes

Hi Folks

Can someone explain what Shift F12 does in the RMS POS screen.

RMS 1.3R - I have three taxes configured on my system and taxes are set by Items. During the normal processing of a sale - everything works great and the appropriate Taxes are recorded with the sale. Once in awhile I need to use a different tax for an Item... This is what I thought shift F12 was for?

What am I doing wrong? and how do I process a sale with a different Sales Tax?

Thanks Danny

Hi Danny - got to say I'm also stumped... There's three "tax" function keys in POS

- Shift F9 No Tax: Makes entire sale tax exempt

- Shift F12 Taxes: Allows you to de-select one or more sales taxes

- Control F5 Toggle Tax: Allows you to toggle the tax of selected item on/off

What I tried to figure out is if I have two stores, one in Florida, the other in Georgia, and I ring up a sale in Florida with a ship-to of Georgia, my understanding is you have to charge the Georgia sales tax on the sale you're ringing up in your Florida store. At first I though that Shift F12 would allow you to select a different tax area but it doesn't seem to work ( it appears to be only an effective way to remove a county tax that's assigned to the overall sales tax)

Sorry I couldn't provide a soluti> Hi Folks

Maybe someone from Microsoft can answer this question?

I thought that when you purchased maintenance and support - Microsoft monitored the threads and were suppose to answer them....

Thanks - wasn't sure how maintenance/support works. I sometimes post questions and never appear to get a response from the newsgroup. If this is the case - then MS should respond back within 48 hours. Did I understand you correctly?

I did post to the Newsgroups: microsoft.public.pos on Monday, April 30, 2007

10:56 PM Subject: Urgent - Sale taxes - and got a reply to create duplicate items and new sale tax - not a good answer compared to what you provided... What should I do if this happens again - I get an answer but obviously not the correct answer!

BTW- This works great, thanks - funny nobody else knew about this trick.
