Programming A Tax Table - Sam4s ER-655II Operation Manual

Programming a Tax Table

In some cases, a tax that is entered as a percentage does not exactly follow 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 133 is used as an example in the
steps that follow.
Note: You can enter up to 75 break points.
