⚠️ What Happens When You Delete a Tax?
  • The tax will be removed from your list and will no longer be applied to new sales.
  • Any past sales or reports will still show the tax as it was at the time of sale.
  • You can always add a new tax later if your needs or laws change.

💡 Tips
  • Double-check before deleting—deleted taxes cannot be restored.
  • Only delete taxes you’re sure you no longer need.
  • If you’re unsure, you can always edit the tax instead of deleting it.
  • Keep your list tidy by removing outdated or unused taxes.

🏆 Best Practices
  • Review your taxes regularly and remove any that are outdated or unused.
  • Use clear names so staff can easily find and manage taxes.
  • Communicate changes to your team so everyone knows the current tax setup.
