Taxes are being added on top of my Service Fee, can I change this?
Answer:
Some Organizations calculate Taxes on top of Fees, while others determine Taxes without considering Fees or Gratuities. Both options can be configured in the system settings.
Service Fee Exempt
If your Organization calculates Taxes against the raw taxable sale price of an item (subtotal) then you will want to ensure the Taxes in question are set up as Fee Exempt. If a Fee is applied to an item using a Fee Exempt Tax, the Fee is not included in Tax calculation for the Fee Exempt Tax.
