How to Set Up Dual Tax in RepairDesk
Some regions require two separate taxes, like GST (Goods and Services Tax) and PST (Provincial Sales Tax), to be itemized individually on a customer's receipt rather than combined into a single rate.
RepairDesk's Dual Tax feature handles this for you. Once you enable dual tax in your settings and set a primary and secondary tax value on your products, both rates are calculated and shown separately at point of sale. You can also apply the setup across your entire catalog at once by exporting the tax template and pasting in your values, so every item is compliant without editing products one by one.

In this guide, you'll learn how to enable dual tax, apply primary and secondary tax values to your products, confirm both taxes itemize at point of sale, and roll the setup out across your catalog.

Q. How can I turn off Tax Inclusiveness for all my items if I wish to enable Dual Tax for all of them?
A. It's simple. Export the CSV file of Inventory and under the column Tax Inclusive enter 0 in all cells.
Save the CSV file and then import it back to RepairDesk.
Note: This scenario is applicable when you had previously enabled tax inclusiveness and now want to turn off tax inclusiveness. If you already have set tax as exclusive, you don't need to perform this step.
