You have two choices for tax rate set-up: 

1. Use our tax table database. 

We use a tax table, which is updated on a regular basis, to calculate taxes, which are charged based on the delivery or pickup ZIP code.  

To enable use of the tax table:

  1. In Lab 50, click Store Management > Application Settings > double-click Photo Finale > check-box is on the General tab.
  2. Then click Save (left sidebar)

2. OR, you can set your own tax rules

This can be either a single rate, or a ZIP-code based rate you enter yourself..  If you would like to set your own tax rules:

  1. Disable the database tax table, as described above. You must not have the database tax table enabled if you are going to define your own rules
  2. In Lab 50
