Viewing Geocode Sales Tax Information

Use the National Sales Tax Database Maintenance screen to view the sales tax information for any geocode in the database. If you do not know the geocode for an address, you can search for it using the state, county, city, or zip code.

To view geocode sales tax information:

From the Files > Tax, Duty & Exchange Rates > National Sales Tax menu, select National Sales Tax Database Maint to display the National Sales Tax Database Maintenance screen.

Note: You can view the geocode used for sales tax calculation from Sales Order Entry. Use the Totals hot key to display the SOE Totals screen and then press Alt-~ to display the geocode.

In the Geocode field, enter all or part of a geocode, zip code, city, county, or state abbreviation, and then select a geocode from the list of matches.
