Overview

Tax tables allow you to setup taxes for various states, cities, and counties. Tax tables are similar to shipping tables and can be configured in bulk using an import file.

How Tax Tables Function

Tax tables are inheriting. This means that all cities in a state inherit the tax rate for the state and all cities in a county* inherit the tax rate for the state, county, and city.

CityState RateCounty RateLocal Rate (City)
Los Alamitos 0.00.08.750 % Los Alamos 0.00.08.750 % Los Altos Hills0.00.09.250 % Los Altos 0.00.09.250 % Los Angeles 0.00.09.750 %

* Taxes are based on the city a user supplies for billing. If a user supplies a city that does not have a tax rate setup for it eCMS does not fall back to the county since eCMS has no way of knowing what county that city is in.
