Calculate Sales Tax Template

Use this template to create a business rule that can calculate the sales tax for a specific expense type and adds an itemization to reflect the taxes, if needed. This is used for the CONUS table because it does not include sales tax for lodging.

Parameters

Per Diem Expense Type
Select the per diem expense type or types.
Tax Expense Type
Select the tax expense type.

Specify the percent, for example, 10.0.
