Taxes

This page shows you how to set up taxes so they’re applied correctly and automatically on your sales and purchases — no manual tax lines.

Tax templates

Section titled “Tax templates”

In Zinye ERP, taxes live in tax templates — a saved set of one or more tax rows (the account it posts to, and the rate). You set them up once and apply them to transactions:

  • Sales Taxes and Charges Template — the tax(es) you charge customers (for example VAT).
  • Purchase Taxes and Charges Template — the tax(es) you pay suppliers.

Create a sales tax template

Section titled “Create a sales tax template”
  1. Go to Accounting → Taxes → Sales Taxes and Charges Template → New (or the equivalent under your tax setup).
  2. Add a row: the tax account, the rate (for example 7.5), and how it’s applied (usually On Net Total).
  3. Name it clearly and, if you like, set it as the default for the customers it applies to.

Do the same under Purchase Taxes and Charges Template for taxes on what you buy.

How it’s applied

Section titled “How it’s applied”

Once a default template is set, the tax is added to a sales or purchase document automatically, calculated on the totals, and posted to the right tax account when you submit — so your tax reports are always correct.
