Tax Configuration
TAX ConFIgURATIon
There are three tax-related .500 files: CfgTax.500, Tax.500
and TaxCode.500 These files label and structure tax
values from DELLOAD.DAT for use in DMS Delivery.
Any changes to these files must be made before running
LCLoad.
CfgTax.500
Tax.500
TaxCode.500
If CfgTax.500 is configured correctly, after running LCLoad,
Tax.500 and TaxCode.500 will not require editing unless 10
or more individual taxes are needed.
LCLoad and taxes
Tax.500 and TaxCode.500 are created by LCLoad using
data from CfgTax.500 and DELLOAD.DAT field values.
Tax.500 records specify single taxes, and TaxCode.500
records combine single taxes to form tax structures.
Following the highlighted fields in the examples to the
right:
1. The two fields of CfgTax.500 #5 (Tax Type and Label)
and Field 23 of DELLOAD.DAT ( Rate in Tax.500)
combine to create Tax Record #1004 ( Reference
#5 in TaxCode.500). LCLoad creates a Tax Record
for each unique combination of Type, Rate, and
Label.
2. Tax Reference #1004 is a single tax used in many
TaxCode.500’s tax structures.
3. A Tax Code is created for every unique combination
of Tax Records in DELLOAD.DAT.
