Tax entities

GST calculation at LS Retail POS involves a new set of tables to which the tax entities should be added.

• Add a new Table named LSC POS Transaction with the Entity Type set to Transaction.
• Add another Table named LSC POS Trans. Line with the Entity Type set to Transaction.

  This lets you configure use cases based on these new tax entities.

  

Tax attributes

A tax attribute is used as a parameter for tax rate configuration.

• Link the LSC POS Trans. Line entity to the LSCIN HSN/SAC mapping field.

  

• Link the LSC POS Trans. Line entity to the LSCIN GST Group Code mapping field.

  

Tax rates

• Select a tax rate value based on the column name as configured in the rate setup.

  

Use case

A use case describes a business scenario, conditions, and events that trigger tax calculation. The use case can be enabled or disabled based on the business's need.

• Import the use case JSON file LSCIN GST TaxUseCase.json from the IN localization folder in the LS Central release package.
• After importing, GST tax is calculated in the POS transaction line.

  

  

Use case tree

A use case tree makes a use case applicable.

• Search for Use Case Tree, and select the relevant link.
• Select Import Nodes to import the use case tree JSON file LSCIN GST UseCaseTree.json from the IN localization folder in the LS Central release package.
• After importing, GST tax is calculated for POS sales as defined in the use case.
