Item Tax Rule Override
A service- or material-specific taxability, jurisdiction, or rate exception.
Why LAWNSNOWAPP asks for it
Some items receive different tax treatment from the company default.
How LAWNSNOWAPP uses it
LAWNSNOWAPP applies the active item rule during new tax calculations before storing finalized invoice amounts.
Example
Use a verified override when one material has a different applicable rate.
If you leave it blank
The default configured tax rule applies.
If you change it later
Future calculations use the exception; finalized invoices are not repriced.
Common mistakes
- Using a tax override to discount the customer
- Changing tax instead of service price
- Applying tax to the $2.90 platform fee
