WaiterOne offers a flexible and intuitive way to manage taxes, making it easier for businesses to handle varying tax rates depending on the type of sale. A frequent question we receive is how to set up different tax levels for dine-in versus takeaway orders. Let’s break it down step by step.
Three Tax Levels Per Group/Table
In WaiterOne, you have the ability to assign up to three tax levels per group or table. This allows you to create different tax settings based on the nature of the sale. For example, you might have one tax rate for dine-in customers and a different one for takeaway orders. Here’s how you can set it up:
Step 1: Configure a Table for Takeaway
To differentiate tax rates for takeaway orders, start by creating a table specifically for takeaway sales. Once this table is set up:
- Assign Tax Level 2 as the tax level for this takeaway table.
- When you process a sale using this table, the system will automatically apply the tax rate assigned to Tax Level 2.
This setup ensures that any sales recorded under the takeaway table will be taxed at the appropriate rate.
Step 2: Adjusting Tax Levels for Other Tables
If you’d prefer to reverse the setup, you can:
- Use Tax Level 1 for takeaway orders.
- Assign Tax Level 2 for all dine-in tables.
This flexibility allows you to tailor the tax configuration to your specific business needs, ensuring accurate taxation for every scenario.
