Configuration guidelines for ‘Tax Code. Open’ (CRS130)

Tax codes correspond to customers and products in Vertex. You must configure and assign these codes. You can configure both customer and item tax codes in (CRS130). To ensure that the tax decision takes place in Vertex, select the Taxable check box for all tax codes, even if you have non-taxable customers or products. With this setting, all tax decisions are deferred to the external system, and this simplifies the reconciliation of sales with taxable and non-taxable transactions.

We suggest that you configure these tax codes:

Tax Code Description Taxable Tax trans type Tax trans code
CRE Tax adjustment credit Yes SALE C-Tax adjustment credit
DEB Tax adjustment debit Yes SALE B-Tax adjustment debit

EXE Exempt Yes SALE N-Normal invoice
