Overview
This help guide will provide an overview of Mintsoft's regionalisation feature, and select a regional tax type.
Regional Tax Type
Mintsoft has a Tax Type option under the Customer Account Settings page, which can be set to either Value Added Tax (VAT) or Goods and Service Tax (GST). This option will dynamically rename any references on Mintsoft based on the Tax Type option selected. The Tax type applies to CSV imports and exports in various parts of the system, with the columns being renamed from VAT to GST, if the setting is set to GST.
Note: The tax type is set against a customer's account and therefore any change will be applied for all users.
