GEM-CAR FAQ
Validation of Tax Rules
You must check your tax rules by going to the menu: Configurations > Configurations > Currencies/Taxes tab.
This step is particularly important if you have activities in other provinces or countries than your province and/or if you have particular activities that require special configurations such as hosting or tire sales.
If you did not enter your tax numbers when you created your GEM-CAR account, you must do so in this section.
Tax configuration
The first time you use GEM-CAR, the system will help you set up your taxes according to your province. There is no need to change the tax settings after this step. When you generate a quote from a sale, you should see your tax numbers next to the total at the bottom. However, if you made a mistake and want to change your settings, here is the procedure.
On the left side menu, click on the Configurations > Configurations > Currencies/Taxes tab.
If you want to specify your tax numbers, click on the "Taxes Canada" tax rule. If you have the module, Carrier, Broker, or Courier, you will have to do the same thing in "Taxes Canada - Freight transportation" and "Taxes Canada - Freight transportation in Quebec".
Note: If you want to sell products without taxes, you don't need to add a tax rule. Simply specify the tax rule No taxes to be used in a category or manually during a sale in the Accounting > Specify button.
However, a special tax rule may be created to avoid charging provincial taxes.
In this section, all taxes are specified by province. You can click on each province to insert your tax numbers. It is important to insert your numbers in each province because if you invoice a customer in a province where the tax number is not listed, it will not appear on the invoice.
Configuration of your tax numbers
- Go to the left-hand menu under Configurations > Configurations > Currencies/Taxes tab.
- Click on Canadian taxes in the tax rules.
- Select each tax by clicking on the list. For example, you can click on TPS,
- Enter your ID number,
- Click on Save and close.
Note: If your sales volume exceeds the provincial exemptions, don't forget to register and add your tax number. Ex British Columbia taxes.
