Changing Tax Categories & Adding Labels

AI.TaxAssist  system uses machine learning to cognitively suggest deductibles/non-deductibles and taxable/non-taxables for your leger items. To learn more about the categorisation, please click on Tax Categories – Non-Deductibles and Non-Taxables article.
If you find that the Category has been listed incorrectly, you have the option to change the category. The machine learns from every correction made to be more accurate in the future.

To change the Category, follow the steps below, 
  1. To add a category for a single ledger line,  
    1. Click under Tax Category against the ledger line you want to add/change category for 
    2. Select a category from the dropdown list  
    3. You will see a notification message that the changes have been saved successfully
  2. To add/change labels for multiple ledger lines 
    1. Select the ledger line/s that you would like to change the tax category for.
    2. Click on Change Fields button in the Tax Classifications tab under the Workspace.
    3. Click on Category.       
    4. Choose the appropriate Category from this drop down list and click on Change. 
    5. You can also add a category by clicking on the Add Category button.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
  3. To mark an Expense item Deductible choose Deductible as a category
  4. To mark an Income item Taxable choose Taxable as a category 
You will notice that the Tax Status column responded to changes in the Tax Category Column. By choosing a category other than Deductible / Taxable, you are in fact tagging the reason why that item is Non-Deductible / Non-Taxable
