Tax Rate File
Previous Top Next

 
The Tax Rate File (files with extension tx.csv) contains tax rates at the grant level and is used for deferred tax functionality.

Insertions and Modifications
Upload file can contain both new records, and updates to existing records.
A row is uniquely identified by a combination of the Grant ID and Effective Date.

If there is more than one record in the Tax Rate file with the same Grant ID and Effective Date, the system will assume that the last record is supposed to update the previous record(s).  The previous record(s) will be lost and no validation error will be reported.


Deletions
To delete a record, you can add a record in an acceptable .CSV file format that contains only the Grant ID. Deletion records can be in the same file as insertion and modification records.

Examples
Two ways to format the data in a Tax Rate File when there is multiple tax rate records for a single grant:

1.   Create a separate line for each tax rate record for each grant

The data would be loaded in the following sequence:
#GrantID, EffectiveDate, TaxRate
Grant1, 1/1/2003, 17.5
Grant1, 4/1/2003, 18
Grant2, 1/1/2003, 20

2.   Put multiple sets of tax rate information on the same line by repeating the data fields other than the GrantID:

The data would be loaded in the following sequence:
#GrantID, EffectiveDate, TaxRate, <EffectiveDate, TaxRate>, ....
Grant1, 1/1/2003, 17.5, 4/1/2003, 18
Grant2, 1/1/2003, 20
