- Inclusive Tax: This is a percentage based tax included in the subtotal
- Ex: $10.00 item with 10% tax. Total w/tax = $10.00
- Flat Tax: This is a dollar amount tax based per item
- Ex: $10.00 item with $1.00 tax. Total w/tax = $11.00
Changing the Default Tax Rate
From the talech Register, Go to Dashboard > Back Office > Settings > Taxes. Here you will see the Default tax. Tap this and fill out the necessary information.
Creating a New Tax
Multiple tax rates are supported by talech. For example, if Food and Beverages had different tax rates, you would simply create a Food Tax and a Drink tax and apply them to the appropriate products/categories.
To create a new Tax rate, Go to Dashboard > Back Office > Settings > Taxes. Press the + in the top right corner. Once you are done filling out the necessary information, press save.

Once you select one of these options, you will see a list of your categories. Simply tap them to apply. Once you are done press Back and then Save.
