Taxes
Our tax reports are designed to help you understand, analyze, and summarize the taxes you have collected on behalf of your state and local tax authorities so that you can accurately report and remit these taxes to the proper authorities. For the most accurate tax reporting, ensure your taxes are set up individually under Settings > Taxes. Refer to Changing Tax Settings for guidance in setting up your taxes.
Tax-Exempt Sales and Non-Taxable Sales
Tax-exempt sales include revenue derived from rooms and items that have taxes associated with them in settings and therefore would be otherwise taxable except for a special tax-exempt status marked on the bill. This is usually allowed to a class of customers by a tax authority, which is typically written into its tax law. Tax-exempt sales data is collected from specific Bills/Reservations where the tax-exempt edit is applied to select or all taxes. Tax-exempt sales are explicitly reported in a separate column in the tax reports.
Non-taxable sales include revenue derived from items where no tax is assigned to an item, and from room revenue associated with a rate type where a tax or taxes have been overridden or not applied. Non-taxable items may include gift certificate sales, cancellation fees (in many states, not all), and shipping/handling fees to cover shipping guest clothing left behind. Non-taxable sales will also include room revenue from Airbnb and OTA reservations where Airbnb and OTAs collect and remit taxes. Non-taxable sales are not explicitly reported in our tax reports. They are not included in the revenue reported in the Tax Summary and Taxes by Date reports. They are included in the revenue reported in the Taxes by Item and Taxes by Account reports.
