Taxes

The rates a repair line can be charged at, and the registration details that print on what you issue.

Repairs bills with tax like anything else, so the rates and your registration live here. Filing a return does not: that belongs to the app that files it.

Go to SettingsTaxes. Two tabs: Tax Rates and your tax's own settings tab.

The Tax Rates tab of Taxes in Repairs Settings, headed Tax Rates above the line Manage tax rates applied to your transactions, with a blue Tax button at the right. A table with columns TAX NAME, RATE, STATUS and ACTIONS lists Zero Rate at 0%, Reduced Rate at 5% and Standard Rate at 20%, each marked Active.
Two tabs here where the finance side has four: filing and the Construction Industry Scheme are not Repairs' job.

Tax Rates

The rates a document line can be charged at, each with a name, a percentage and a status. Making a rate Inactive keeps it off new documents while leaving it on the documents that already use it, which is what you want when a rate changes rather than disappears.

The tax settings tab

Your registration, in one section.
