 ====How can I control the taxation of Items, Freight & Misc. on a per state basis?====
-DynamicZip has a feature called [[dynamiczip:features:tbic:Tax By Item Category]] which allows you to control the taxation of [[dynamiczip:glossary:Inventory Item]] freight and miscellaneous charges on a per state basis. The [[dynamiczip:windows:DZ Tax By Item Category Setup window]] allows you to choose a state, an [[dynamiczip:glossary:Item Category]] and a [[dynamiczip:glossary:Tax Option]].
+DynamicZip has a feature called [[dynamiczip:features:tbic:Tax By Item Category]] which allows you to control the taxation of [[dynamiczip:glossary:Inventory Item|inventory items]] as well as freight and miscellaneous charges on a per state basis. The [[dynamiczip:windows:DZ Tax By Item Category Setup window]] allows you to choose a state, an [[dynamiczip:glossary:Item Category]] and a [[dynamiczip:glossary:Tax Option]].
+==== Freight Charges ====
-**NOTE:** Tax by Item Category was called Tax by Item Class in DynamicZip build 71 and earlier.
-**For Freight and Misc. Charges:** Create an item category called FREIGHT from the [[dynamiczip:windows:DZ Item Category Maintenance window]].
+Create the item category FREIGHT using the [[dynamiczip:windows:DZ Item Category Maintenance window]].
-  - Assign your freight [[dynamiczip:glossary:Inventory Item]] to the FREIGHT item category with the [[dynamiczip:windows:DZ Item Supplement window]] **NOTE:** If you have several inventory items that need to be assigned to the FREIGHT item category you may prefer using the [[dynamiczip:windows:DZ Modify Item Supplement window]] rather than the DZ Item Supplement window.
+  - Assign your freight inventory items to the FREIGHT item category with the [[dynamiczip:windows:DZ Item Supplement window]] **NOTE:** If you have several inventory items that need to be assigned to the FREIGHT item category you may prefer using the [[dynamiczip:windows:DZ Modify Item Supplement window]] rather than the DZ Item Supplement window.
-  - Use the [[dynamiczip:windows:DZ Tax By Item Category Setup window]] to setup the states where Freight will be Nontaxable.
+  - Use the DZ Tax By Item Category Setup window to setup the states where Freight will be Nontaxable.
   - Now all inventory items assigned to the FREIGHT item category __as well as any amounts entered directly into the Freight field at the footer of the__ [[dynamics:windows:Sales Transaction Entry window]] will be controlled by your settings in the [[dynamiczip:windows:DZ Tax By Item Category Setup window]].
-Please follow the same steps for Miscellaneous charges, only create and use an item category called MISC.
+The CCH ZIPsales Database includes the [[dynamiczip:glossary:Zipsales Database Rules file]]. The information contained in this file may help you determine in which states you are responsible for collecting tax on freight.
+==== Miscellaneous Charges ====
+Create the item category MISC using the [[dynamiczip:windows:DZ Item Category Maintenance window]].
+  - Assign your miscellaneous charge inventory items to the MISC item category with the [[dynamiczip:windows:DZ Item Supplement window]] **NOTE:** If you have several inventory items that need to be assigned to the MISC item category you may prefer using the DZ Modify Item Supplement window rather than the DZ Item Supplement window.
+  - Use the DZ Tax By Item Category Setup window to setup the states where the miscellaneous charges will be Nontaxable.
+  - Now all inventory items assigned to the MISC item category __as well as any amounts entered directly into the Miscellaneous charges field at the footer of the__ [[dynamics:windows:Sales Transaction Entry window]] will be controlled by your settings in the DZ Tax By Item Category Setup window.
+  -
+==== Other Items, Services and Charges ====
+Create an item category for each class of charges whose taxability varies from state to state. Examples could include categories like:
+  * Parts
+  * Labor
+  * Services
+  * Food
+  * Liquor
+Follow the above steps to create, assign and manage whatever custom categories your business requires.
