About the Tax List

Taxes, also known as Defined Taxes, are the taxes used in a workspace. They are created from real taxes that were imported from your organization. Currently, real taxes are created and modified in the Proliance Local Admin application. For instructions on how to create real taxes, see "Editing Lookup Lists" in the Proliance Local Admin online help.

A tax may be either a committing or non-committing tax:

• Committing tax: Represent real costs on the workspace and often require special handling, such as withholding, by accounting systems. They are part of the committed costs of your workspace. Examples of a committing tax include the "State Taxes" in the United States and the "PST" in Canada.
• Non-committing tax: They are not part of the committed costs of a workspace. They are commonly referred to as "Flow Through" or "Value Added Taxes" since they increase the price of goods. Typically, companies either pay or receive the difference between the non-committing tax that they collected from customers and the amount that they paid to the government. Examples of non-committing tax include the "VAT" in UK and the "GST" in Canada and Australia.

All taxes are listed on the Tax List. You can create up to five (5) committing and non-committing taxes. tax information is organized on the following pages:

• Main: Lists all the committing and non-committing taxes for your workspace. For more information, see "Workspace Tax List - Main".
• Properties: Contains the properties of the tax list. This includes the name of the user who created the list and the date when it was created. For more information, see "Document Properties".
