Setting Sales Tax for in State ONLY??

What we have here is a failure to communicate...  Either it is a language problem with support or they can't explain the feature.
All the answers I 'm getting are NOT answers to the question I'm asking. And the document is not clear either.
I have clients who sell products who ONLY need to charge sales tax to customers in the same state (PA)  but BC is charging 6% to all customers regardless of location.  We realize now that we should not have set the tax on individual products to PA 6%  (although that is VERY counterintuitive), and we set up our tax code for the USA with all states being zero and pa being 6%.   Tech cannot tell me how I should be setting taxes globally for products. IT is almost as if this feature does not exist:
ME:   No,    This is not acceptable nor does it make any sense.
In the USA, for most companies,  we only charge sales tax to In state customers, not out of state customers.  Therefore we need to be able to set up a global tax NOT on the product and NOT on the Country, but upon the state ONLY.
If this option is not available, it is a worthless system.

There are two proper ways to add tax.
1. Add tax to shipping options: In this case, you create tax codes and shipping options too. Now, you add tax code to the shipping option as per the customer's destination country. Add a shipping option, and select the tax code in the shipping option. This is the more widely used method of applying tax. From what I had seen, you didn't create any shipping options yet, hence the confusion.
2. Add tax directly to the product: This is what you had done. This will, as you have already mentioned, apply the tax to the product, irrespective of the customer's address details.
Hope this clarifies the situation.
Cheers.
You can set it as not applicable. If you apply tax to the product level, it will apply the tax to all orders for that product. To apply tax to all orders regardless of the visitor's location, you can apply tax at a product level. Check this document:http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/partner/tax-codes.html

Your question is really inappropriate to the Apple Discussions. The AD is a user-to-user forum for helping with technical problems and questions for Apple products. Sales taxes is certainly not one of those topics.
However, to answer your question. If your friend purchases a Mac in the Apple store or if you purchase it via the online store taxes will be charged. Sales taxes in the US are typically between 6-8 percent of the purchase cost depending upon the state in which it is purchased. There are a few states that do not levy sales taxes such as Nevada and Montana.
In addition when your friend takes the computer into your country you will likely be charged with import duties and taxes as well. If it's your expectation that this ploy will save you some money I wouldn't count on it.

  • I have a new Samsung phone and I live in CT. Last month they charged me $38 on my bill for the sales tax for the new phone which was $600. I'm paying for the phone itself over 20 installments of $30 each.  Now again I'm getting that same $38 charge. I can

    I have a new Samsung phone and I live in CT. Last month they charged me $38 on my bill for the sales tax for the new phone which was $600. I'm paying for the phone itself over 20 installments of $30 each.  Now again I'm getting that same $38 charge. I can't  believe that the monthly CT tax is higher than the payment for the phone itself. Does this make sense. Last time I spoke with them on the phone it was for 1 1/4 hours for something simple. I don't want to call unless I need to. The salesman told me nothing about any of this. Thank you for any help you can offer.

    The bill from last month states:
    CT state sales tax**     $38.10
    ** In some states sales tax or surcharges are calculated on the full cost of the full retail price or VZW cost of the device you purchased and not on the discounted price you pay. The sales tax or surcharges charged on your device was based on $599.99 and appears on this first bill.
    The current bill says the same.
    Actually, now I'm realizing that last month's bill stated I was making the first payment toward the phone. Now this month also says it's the first payment toward the phone when it's really the second.

  • EBusiness tax feature "Tax for Reporting Purposes Only"

    Hi everyone,
    Did anyone used "Set Tax for Reporting Purposes Only" feature in Etax? If yes, then can you, please, describe me how works in AP/AR modules. Because for some reasons I cannot make it work and Etax User Guide does not contain much information about it.
    Thanks in advance,
    Vladimir

    As I mentioned in the PM, I'm going to list an alternate tax solution here.
    It involves using a single tax amount (the lower amount) on all products. That may not sound right, but with some additional steps it's not a bad solution.
    Assuming you have two tax amounts, one at 7.5% and another at 9%, you assign all taxable products the lower tax amount.
    Then you change the price of the higher taxed products by the difference in the percentage. (if the product was $1, then it is now $1.02) Part of why this works is because the increase is not so significant that customers would usually care.
    Using the product attributes, you set up a dropdown list with the options, "tax1" and "tax2"
    Each product, in a custom1 field is assigned its appropriate tax name (tax1 or tax2).
    The dropdown list is hidden, so the customer doesn't know it's there
    When a customer looks at a large product view, js automatically selects the appropriate attribute based on what is in the custom field.
    Set up two reports, one for each tax group.
    Filter them by attribute, so only the applicable products are shown in the report
    Using very simple math (Total x 1.075 and Total x 1.09, depending on which report it is), the accountant will know exactly how much to pay in taxes for each tax type.
    At first glance, this looks like a bad solution, but all that really matters is that the company is collecting and paying their taxes. Your client charges the lower amount so they are not overcharging taxes (kind of illegal). The slight price increase of the higher taxed products covers the rest and then some.

  • How difficult is it to implement indirect sales tax for India?

    Dear All,
    What is the level of difficulty to implement indirect sales taxes for India? Is this a low, medium, or high level of difficulty implementation?
    Does India offer a nationalization package, and is it necessary to install India's nationalization?
    Ultimately, I need to get an estimate for the number of people and days of work involved in order to determine the expected cost.
    Kind regards,
    Mark

    Hi Mark,
    The level of difficulty to implement indirect sales taxes for India is high level of difficulty implementation?
    Country India Version is along with ECC. No need to implement any other package.
    Depend on the requirement it takes 2-3 months of implementation for CIN. And Two consultants are required to configure this implementation. If A consultant has 2-3 years in the CIN Configuration then 1 Consultant is enough. Cost vary from organization to organization.

  • Set height size for each state enabling browser scrollbar if needed..

    I'm working on a flex project, completely new to it. I'm trying to resize my application based on the set height size for each state. I'd like the wrapper to resize in the browser so that the  browser's scroll bar appears if needed. hope this makes sense....
    My enitial opening page I've set the height to 1000. now when I click on a link to another state from this page, we'll call it 'home' which i have set to 2000
    The page opens in its 2000 height but no scroll bar appears to scroll down in the browser...
    If anyone's done this or knows how to, I'd really appreciate your input.

    I've done something similar with a few of my apps, you have to use a little javascript on the html page and the ExternalInterface class in your app. Basically, you need to resize the "browser's" height based on your flash file.  So here's quick example:
    In your html template page (which you can edit in your flashbuilder project panel ->html-template->indext.template.html)
    in your html add the jscript function:
    <script type="text/javascript">
             function setWindowHeight(heightVal){
                 document.getElementById('theWindow').style.height=heightVal; // make sure to give the body tag an id of 'theWindow' or whatever
    </script>
    In your flashbuilder app you need to call the javascript fx, you can use the ExternalInterface class for this:
      ExternalInterface.call('setWindowHeight',val+'px');
    you need to send the jscript fx the height of your container or whatever you want it resized to....

    Hi ,
    you can proceed in the following way
    1) You would need to configure the tax procedure for USA copy  TAXUS  ( OBQ3)
    2)  have UTXJ condition in that 
    3) create the tax codes for the different scenarios  FTXP
    4) also modify your pricing procedure if it does not have the UTXJ condition type ( V/08)
    5) Maintain the condition records to determine the releavant tax code vk11
    6) Run the cycle & check whether the applicable tax rates get picked up
    hope this helps
    Thanks

  • Sales Tax for the new iMac

    I'm sorry, I know this is probably not the right place to pose a question about sales tax, but I could not find the right category =/
    If you think I should re-write this question in another category, I will
    So, my situation is: I live in Brazil, and I have a friend who's going to the US in October. She is going to buy the new iMac for me.
    I read on Apple's website that Sales Tax may apply. In which cases? If my friend goes to the retail store (instead of ordering it's shipment), does she has to pay this tax? how much is it normally? Does it depend on the State?
    (And I only ask this because it's really not clear at apple.com and I don't know how sales tax work in the US...)
    so thank you for your help!

    Hi
    I dont see any problem in one plant paying the Sales Tax amount. Tax amount is posted to one GL account irrespective of the plant and if the Head office has got authorisation in SAP to view the postings of other business areas, then it will be able to post a journal entry debiting Sales Tax Payable account and crediting the Bank account.

  • Setting VTY lines for SSH % Telnet only

    Hello,
    First off I apologize if this is the wrong section to post in or if there has already been a thread made for this particular problem however I've yet to find a solution that works.
    I am configuring a 1841 router running IOS Version 12.4(15)T1
    I am trying to set the vty lines to accept only telnet and ssh connections.
    I am using these commands:
    R1(config)# line vty 0 15
    R1(config-line)# password ciscovtypass
    R1(config-line)# login local
    R1(config-line)#transport input telnet ssh
    When I enter the "transport input telnet ssh" , I receive the error "Invalid input detected at '^' marker" and points to the word ssh.  I can successfully use "transport input telnet" and "transport input ssh" by themselves, however when I try to set them both on the same line is when i get the error.  And setting them both one after another overwrites the previous.  Any help would be much appreciated, thanks. 

    The suggestion from Leo would certainly allow both telnet and SSH. But it also allows some other protocols (they are not common in today's networking environment - but the original question was quite specific that they want to allow only 2 protocols and not all protocols). So let us look for answers that may help Michael.
    My first thought was to wonder if SSH has been fully enabled and whether this might be a factor in the problem. Michael indicates that transport input ssh works ok and that seems to indicate that enabling SSH is not the issue. But I would still feel better if Michael would post the output of show ip ssh
    I wonder if there is an order dependency in which one of the protocols must be entered first. I suggest trying this
    line vty 0 15
    transport input telnet ?
    and
    transport input ssh ?
    and see if one of them indicates that the other protocol is an option.

  • Static Credit check at Sales Order for confirmed quantity only.

    Dear All,
    I am facing two problems and would really appreciate if you could give some inputs on it.
    If a SO is of 100 tons and the confirmed quantity is 10 tons then the credit check is happening  for the value of confirmed quantity only as per the requirement.
    1. But after releasing the SO using VKM3 I have to carry availability check again in the sales order as the confirmed quantity is becoming zero. Pls tell me how to control this, the confirmed qty should not change.
    2. If I increase the confirmed quantity to more than 10 still the system is allowing me to create the delivery without blocking for credit check again as I had released the SO credit for value of 10 tons goods only .

    Abhilash

    HI,
    1) T-code OV27- You have not maintained confimation block here.
    2) T-code OVA8- Select the  credit settings and double click it.You get Display View "View for maintenance of automatic credit control" .

  • Problem setting up Tax for R12 Internet Expenses

    I am using Oracle R12 and am in the process on configuring Internet Expenses and have come across an issue with the tax set up. My issue is that I have created new tax rates in the Tax Manager responsibility for internet expenses (i have enabled the Internet Expenses check box when defining this new rate) and have assigned these rates to items in the Expense Templates. I have also enabled the profile option OIE: Enable Tax profile however when I create an expense report and it is imported into Payables the expense report does not populate with the tax code that I configured in the expense template. The tax code that is being populated is the default defined against the country code which is incorrect. Does anyone have any ideas how I can get the expense report to import with the correct tax code that is populated against the item in the expense template? Thanks

    Log into tax manager
    navigation: default and controls --->application tax options , in the application name, select internet expenses
    this where you tell the system to pick up tax from, depending on your set up, the tax gets defaulted
    so you need to define the hierarchy and if you want tax to default from you expense template you need to stipulate that in the set up

    Hi Pratap,
    For free goods you have to pay excise duty, that is why i recommend you to follow a new pricing procedure, where the Price Condition type is statistical(to calculate excise) and give payer as self if the excise duty you would  not get from customer,\
    1.Create invoice and excise invoice.
    2. If you don't want to to hit self(given in document header partner) create proforma and excise invoice
