Comprehensive, accurate calculation
A correct sales tax calculation starts with identification of all applicable taxing jurisdictions to a street address. For every calculation, Sage 100 ERP Sales Tax performs address verification and then locates the exact street address within a jurisdiction using a geocoding mapping system. The calculation is made, referring to preset user configurations including nexus, tax jurisdictional issues, exception processing, product taxability rules, sourcing rules, split rates, and maximum tax. All of this happens transparently in the background, automatically updating your accounting application.

Automated reporting and returns generation
Easily accessible user interface and reporting platform provides detailed, summary, and exception reports to exceed statutory tax return requirements. Views and drill-downs encompass customer/invoice, product, reason for exemptions, jurisdictional information, and a detailed breakout of rates and taxes by jurisdiction. An incorporated returns platform provides sophisticated selection of required forms, prepopulation of tax data for a specified filing period, and intelligent calculations within the form. A revision approval process is included, permitting Sage 100 ERP Sales Tax to maintain records of adjustments.
