Tax Exemption and Wholesalers

These settings effect prices only on goods carrying sales tax. Each product can be purchased including or excluding tax. Tax exemption takes precedence and overrides any Wholesaler setting (ie the wholesaler checkbox has no effect on tax exempt documents). Sales prices are effected in the following manner for the possible combinations of purchase method and sales settings:

Purchased

Sold

Price Calculation

Tax inclusive

Normal

No tax calculation necessary

Wholesale

Tax on the gross profit is added to the price

Exempt

Sales tax on cost is removed from the price

Tax Exclusive

Normal

Tax on cost price is determined by tax rate

Wholesale

Tax on sell price is determined by tax rate

Exempt

No tax calculation necessary

Each sales document can nominate whether sales tax exemption and or wholesale sale applies. These two customer fields define the default values for these sales document settings. Thus what you enter into the Tax exemption and Wholesaler fields on a customer are only defaults and can still be changed at the point of sale.
