Generally, tax rates are calculated based on what currency you have selected, e.g. if you've selected AUD, the tax rate is 10% (Australian Goods and Services Tax, GST).
However, there may be times when you need to create a tax rate group that combines multiple tax rates.

Note: This is a hidden feature that can only be accessed via https://Nomni Console (app.abacus.co)/taxrate

4. Repeat for all your different kinds of tax rates

2. Enter the Group Name

5. Select the custom Tax Rate you have created. This is your first tax rate.

6. Click Add New
7. Select a second Tax Rate.
8. (OPTIONAL) Select Compound to make it a compound tax rate, i.e. the second tax is applied to the total after the first rate has been applied. Compound tax rate groups will be highlighted in blue.

9. Repeat for all tax rates required
10. Save Changes
11. The final Tax Rate Group will appear in the table, with its final tax rate.

12. Go to the Product Details of each product you want to apply your Tax Group to. Note that each of your products must have a Tax Group.
​You may need to create a second Tax Group in order to suit products that only need 1 tax rate (e.g. just GST).

You can set up your Wine Equalisation Tax (WET) and Goods and Services Tax (GST) by using tax groups.

Please note that this is provided as an example only, we recommend that you check your tax setup with your accountant.

2. Create a New Tax Group with both tax rates, called "WET & GST". Set the GST as a Compound rate.

3. Save. You should end up with a WET & GST of 30.87%

4. Now you will need to create a Tax Group for your products that do not attract WET & GST, i.e. products that only attract GST. Click New Tax Group.

5. Call this Tax Group "GST Only", and add just the GST, then Save Changes.

6. You should end up with two Tax Groups: GST only ($10) and WET & GST (30.87%)

7. Go to the Product Details of each product and select the right tax group for it, e.g. WET & GST for your wine products, and GST only for crackers.

Once you've decided to create a Tax Group, you need to set a Tax Group for all of your taxable products, otherwise your products will not have tax.

We recommend that only advanced Excel spreadsheet users change Tax Groups via bulk import. Otherwise, users are advised to update Tax Groups one at a time via the Product Details.

5. Under the header, Taxable, ensure that TRUE is filled in for each taxable product, and FALSE is filled in for each non-taxable product.

Non-taxable products do not need a Tax Rate Group.
