Use this form to create and manage sales tax books.

All sales transactions and purchase transactions must be included in sales tax reporting (in sales tax books and sales tax book sections).

Prerequisites

Set up specific number sequences for the created sales tax books. After the number sequences are assigned, they must remain connected to the sales tax purpose for which they were set up.

Voucher numbers that are assigned during posting must be sequentially ordered by the posting date, and sales tax transactions within the same number sequence code must be posted chronologically. The voucher number is assigned at posting time, not when you enter the data of the invoice or credit note. All invoices should, by default, carry sales tax even when the sales tax amount is zero. When the sales tax amount is zero, you must set up a sales tax code with a zero percentage.
