How to Create a Tax in Muhasib ERP

Overview

This guide will help you create a tax definition with the approved rate, calculation type, and integration mapping.

The tax becomes selectable and can affect totals, postings, receipts, submissions, and tax reports.

Who can do this

You need access to Tax and Tax Add.

Before you start

Get written approval for name, rate/value, inclusive/exclusive/calculation behavior, effective date, authority/integration mapping, and GL accounts.

Before saving, check that the correct company is open and that you have permission to complete this task.

Where to find it

Back Office → Muhasib Financials/setup → Manage Tax.

Check your work
