Taxes

Introduction

The Taxes page is where taxes can be created to be attached to any sales made that are taxable. The importance of creating taxes is that they are automatically applied to a customer's invoice once the service is completed rather than having to do them all manually afterwards and erases the need for additional calculations. This page will walk through how to create taxes and how they can be applied to customers automatically if need be. To reach the Taxes page, click on the Admin Dropdown on the side menu, then click on Settings and then Taxes. Clicking on the three bars on the top left corner of the page will expand the side menu to allow for easier access
