Set Up Default and Tax Exempt Rates
We advise every account to have a Default Tax Rate with the standard tax by location that gets applied to all food orders upon checkout. Click Make Default near a different Tax Rate to make that the standard Tax Rate applied to all Orders and Menus.
It's important to create a Tax Exempt Rate for when a tax should not be applied. Certain Customers or Menu Items might be Tax Exempt for various reasons. Having a Tax Exempt category helps to easily apply this when necessary.
