Setting up Special Taxes in JAS

Introduction

British Columbia, Nova Scotia, and Ontario all have a separate tax set up for children’s wear; these 3 provinces charge only 5% for the HST tax. The following document explains how to set this up in JAS.

Note: This is an optional feature. For more information please contact Jonar.

Setup

Step 1: Setting up the special tax in the code file

In JAS go to:

  • Setup
  • Code File


Select 'PROVINCE'


Click on the appropriate province and select "Modify".

In the Special Tax field, enter the code for GST.

  • Note: If you don't have a GST tax code in JAS, this must be set up. 


Click on "Update".

Repeat the process for the other provinces for which this applies.




Step 2: Setting up the special tax in the style file

The second step would be to flag all the styles that should use the special tax code.

In JAS go to:

  • Styles
  • Maintenance
  • Add/Change


Enter the appropriate style & color.

Click on "Modify".


Under "Special Tax" enter a 'Y'.

  • This will flag the system to know that any invoices created with this style should use the special tax.

Click on "Update".


Sample Invoice

When you print your invoices, those styles that are set up with the Special Tax will be indicated with an asterisk* next to the description information as shown below. The tax description will also have an * next to it to indicate that the special taxes have been charged.


Important Notes

·        When multi-store invoices are created, all the provinces associated with these stores must have a special tax set up. If all the provinces for these stores do not have the Special Tax set up, the system uses a weighted average to calculate the taxes.

·        If an invoice contains both regular styles as well as those with special taxes set up, the program uses a weighted average to calculate the taxes.
