If, when initially created, you based your store on one of the sample store archives, default tax rates are set up for you.
Note: All rates should be specified as a percentage value, and not a flat rate.
To change tax rates, do the following:
- Open WebSphere Commerce Accelerator.
- From either the Store or Hub
menu,From the Store menu, select
Change Tax.
The Tax notebook opens. - From the left navigation frame, click Rates.
- If you created your store based on a sample store archive, note that the
tax rates table contains a default tax, Shipping, which has an initial
value of 0.00. In the Shipping column, for each jurisdiction within the
table, type the tax rate charged for shipping.
Leave the value as zero if you do not charge a shipping tax. - In the rest of the cells, type the tax rate for each combination of tax jurisdiction and tax category.
- Click OK to save your settings and exit.
