How do you set VAT rates?

Answer

The VAT rate of a product depends on its VAT group. You create the VAT groups under Settings > Till and products > VAT groups: a name and a VAT rate. Jimani sets the rates themselves and the currency; those tabs are hidden.

Where to find it

Settings > Till and products > VAT groups (/settings/vatsetup)

Explanation

The page shows the VAT group tab with a card for each VAT group, with the name and the percentage after it. Click the plus button for a new VAT group: enter the Name of the VAT group, choose the rate under Select tax and click Save. After that, for each product you choose the VAT group (field VAT group, Select a VAT group).
