An Item Type is a code assigned to each Invoice Item code, which enables the application to calculate and apply sales tax to the item on a customer invoice based on the type of service sold. Most government agencies base sales tax calculations on a defined list of sold service types. These types of sales are typically one of the following: Inventory Parts, Non-Inventory Parts, Labor, Recurring Services, Non-Recurring Services.
The SedonaOffice software is delivered with a list of pre-defined Item Types; you may use these codes and create additional codes to handle complex sales tax situations, which may exist in a particular taxing jurisdiction.
Do not delete the Item Types delivered with your software.
