  • icon Inclusive or exclusive tax modes
  • icon Inline tax override on repair jobs
  • icon Seamless tax reporting

🔹 Easy Tax Configuration

From the Tax Settings Dashboard, you can:

  • Add new tax rates (name, percentage, and description)

  • Set a default tax rate for the entire system

  • Assign unique tax rates to specific parts or services

  • Choose default tax mode (inclusive or exclusive)

🔹 Tax Modes: Inclusive vs. Exclusive

Choose how you want to display and calculate prices:

  • Inclusive Tax Pricing:
    Tax is included in the total price.
    Example: $100 total = $85 item + $15 tax (15% inclusive).

  • Exclusive Tax Pricing:
    Tax is added on top of item prices.
    Example: $85 item + 15% tax = $100 total.

Select your default pricing mode in the Tax Settings, and easily switch between them for individual jobs or invoices when needed.
