Special tax rates are used to apply different taxes to products in the same order in inFlow. They are specific to the product and can be set up so that each item is taxed differently (ex: Non-taxable, Taxable, GST only, etc).

Please note, setting default special taxes is only available on inFlow Cloud for Windows.

How to set default special taxes on products

In the product record, you can click the Special Tax Rates button, next to the Cost and Price section. This will indicate which rates apply to it by default.

For example, if the above product should not be taxed at all, set Non-taxable to all settings for this product.
