Tax

This tab contains settings for implementing tax in PetLinx bookings, product sales and invoices.

• “Tax Number” is your business’ tax number, and appears on your invoices (although you can hide this in the System Options Invoicing tab). Depending on your country this may be labelled as something else, i.e. ABN in Australia, GST Number in New Zealand.
• Choose “Prices are Exclusive of Tax” if product and service prices have sales tax added onto them, or “Inclusive of Tax” if tax is included in the price.
• The other tax options can be changed as required to match your country’s tax requirements. Tick “Use Tax 1” if you are required to add tax to sales of your products and services, and tick “Use Tax 2” if you require a second tax rate (for example, GST and PST in Canada).
• Please note for each tax you use, you must enter a tax rate for both products and services. If one of the rates is not used, enter zero in the tax rate (for example if products have a 10% tax rate, but services do not incur tax, enter 0 in the “Service Tax Rate” field).
• If you are using the Boarding module you will see another option labelled “Boarding Tax Rate”, which is the rate to be used when calculating the daily charge for boarding bookings.
• If “Use Tax 2” is ticked, you have the option of setting whether the tax is compounded. Tick the “Tax 2 is Compounded” tickbox if tax 2 is based on the price plus tax 1, or leave it unticked if tax 2 is based solely on price excluding tax 1.
