The Tax Exempt report shows the total Revenue that was exempted, the amount of tax posted, and the type of exemption (Partial or Exempt).
A tax-exempt room revenue will only show on the report if it was posted by the night audit. A charge that was posted taxable and then voided and reposted manually tax-exempt will not show on the tax-exempt report.
Is considered tax exempt:
- revenue that is set up for partial or total exemption in the reservation.
- revenue to which a discount is applied. The amount discounted is considered as exempted revenue.
- complimentary or free (on BW rewards points), if set up as exempted revenue in Management > Property Settings > Taxes. By default, complementary rooms are set up to be considered as tax-exempt revenue.
- room rate overriden to $0.01 generating taxes of $0... Visual Matrix will count that charge as Tax Exempt. Use the Comp code instead.
