Basic Tax Setup in the US Version

To ensure compliance with local tax reporting, use the Tax Setup page to define basic tax information in Business Central. The page guides you through settings such as choosing the proper group code for non-taxable sales and the default accounts for posting calculated tax.

Tipp

Business Central is available in countries/regions that use value-added tax (VAT). For information about how to set up and report VAT in your country/region, see the articles in the Local Functionality section.
