So basically when bookings are taken in PMS, the system will first check tax mapping at room type level. If that is found, then the respective room type level tax will be mapped on the booking. If room-type level tax mapping not found, then the system will consider the normal Room Revenue tax mappings. We have enabled this feature only for PMS currently. This change will not be reflected on bookings coming from eZee Reservation and eZee Centrix. You’ll see normal Room Revenue Tax mapped on those bookings. For such bookings, you’ll have to manually exempt tax from PMS with Tax Exempt feature and then assign new tax on booking based on their need with Tax Assign Feature in PMS. We have enhanced the room type screen and introduced tax mapping on Room Type. In eZee Absolute Configuration 2) Configuration -> Rate -> Tax – If tax is already mapped on room type, then it will show in detail logs for both Absolute configuration and Reservation configuration.
