Note: Configuration flag CFGEnableTaxGroup must be enabled, and you must have the Tax Rates Module Right selected, under Other in the Data Center.

The Tax Rate form enables you to link tax groups (Tax Codes) to at most three tax rates (Subcodes). On a Ready To Post invoice, when a Tax Group is selected for a line item, corresponding values automatically populate based on the percentages defined on the Tax Rate form.

On the Data Center menu , under Other, click Tax Rates.
