Managing tax settings

In this article include:

1. Adding and editing tax rates
2. Adding and editing tax rules

Manage tax settings in your Back Office to ensure the correct taxes are charged on every order at the OrderPin POS System. Define the names of your taxes and enter the different tax rates your restaurant charges, then set up tax calculation rules to determine when each tax is charged.

Important:

Tax laws are different in every region and can change at any time. Consult a tax professional for specific advice regarding your region.

 

Adding and editing tax rates

In the Back Office, different rates are set for different menu categories, so that restaurants can charge customers corresponding taxes.

Important: Once a tax rate is added to the backend, it cannot be deleted. If you want to cancel the tax, you can directly set the tax rate to 0%.

You can follow the steps below:

1. Log in to the Back Office with your OrderPin POS System credentials.
2. From the home page, select Settings > Payment & Fee > Fee Settings > Tax.
3. Input the tax name, for example, "SST(6%)".
4. Input the tax rate, for example, "6%".
5. Click "Save".

 

Suggestion: When setting the tax rate, you can add brackets and manually enter the tax rate in the brackets. In this way, the printed receipt will directly display the tax rate, and customers can know the tax rate at a glance, as shown below:

 

Adding and editing tax rules

In the Back Office, check the tax calculation logic to set the rules for charging each tax rate or tax rate combination at the OrderPin POS System. For example, whether the tax is included in the product price, whether the tax can be included in the discount, etc.

You can follow the steps below:

1. Log in to the Back Office with your OrderPin POS System credentials.
2. From the home page, select Settings > Payment & Fee > Fee Settings > Tax.
3. Tick the "Tax include in the product price"(if needed).
4. Tick the "Tax can be discounted"(if needed).
5. Click "Save".

 

Note: Please refer to the previous section Understanding taxes for detailed calculation methods on whether taxes are included in the product price and whether tax can be discounted.
