Updating the WebSphere Commerce tax configuration to match the current tax rate

Flash (Alert) Abstract The tax rate may change periodically, and the latest tax rate may be different from your current WebSphere Commerce tax configuration.

Content

For example, if Canada modifies the sales tax rate on July 1, 2006, ensure that you update the tax rate in the WebSphere Commerce system accordingly. To get the current tax rate details, contact the officials or a tax professional, such as an accountant. If the system is using WebSphere Commerce Tax Integration Kit such as Taxware or another third party tax system, contact the third party company for information on how to update the tax rate. If your WebSphere Commerce system is using WebSphere Commerce tax configuration, to configure or update the tax rate, refer to the following documentation: v6: Overview of Tax Configuration: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wchelp/v6r0m0/topic/com.ibm.commerce.user.doc/concepts/ctxtax.htm Adjust the tax rate: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wchelp/v6r0m0/topic/com.ibm.commerce.user.doc/tasks/ttxadtxr.htm V5.6.1.x: Overview of Tax Configuration: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wchelp/v5r6m1/topic/com.ibm.commerce.user.doc/concepts/ctxtax.htm Adjust the tax rate: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wchelp/v5r6m1/topic/com.ibm.commerce.user.doc/tasks/ttxadtxr.htm V5.6.0.x: Overview of Tax Configuration: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wchelp/v5r6/topic/com.ibm.commerce.user.doc/concepts/ctxtax.htm Adjust the tax rate: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wchelp/v5r6/topic/com.ibm.commerce.user.doc/tasks/ttxadtxr.htm
