Estimate Sales Tax - Exempting Transactions

iTracer lets you exempt selected transactions from sales tax estimation. You can exempt transactions by:

  • Account
  • Merchant
  • MCC
  • Individual transaction

Examples for exempting selected transactions from sales tax estimation include contribution to charitable organizations, transactions with government agencies, or transactions with tax exempt organizations.

Marking an account, merchant, MCC, or transaction tax exempt zeroes any sales tax previously associated with a transaction and excludes those transactions, in the selected date range, from sales tax estimation.
