Programming A Tax Table - Samsung ER-550 Operator's And Programming Manual

Programming a Tax Table

In some cases, a tax that is entered as a percentage does not follow exactly the tax charts that apply
in your area (even if the tax chart is based on a percentage). In these cases, we recommend that you
enter your tax using tax table programming. This method will match tax collection exactly to the
break points of your tax table.
Before programming, obtain a copy of the tax table you wish to program. You will need the printed
tax table if you wish to determine the break point entries yourself. The "Tax Table Programming
Example - Illinois 6% Tax Table" on page 98 is used as an example in the steps that follow.
Note: You can enter up to 60 break points.
1. Turn the control lock to the PROGRAM position.
2. From the PROGRAM MODE menu, press 2 to view the TAX PROG. screen.
3. When the arrow is pointed at the TAX NUMBER field, enter the number of the tax you wish to
program. (There are four taxes available, enter 1, 2, 3, or 4.) The arrow will move to the TAX
TYPE field.
4. Enter 1 for an TAX TABLE programming. The appropriate TAX # PROGRAMMING screen
displays.
5. Use the table below as a guide in filling the fields on this screen. After completing these entries,
your screen should look like the screen that follows.
