Where our inn does business there exists a State SALES Tax and a County HOTEL/BED Tax.
In my anticipation of using ResKey as my PMS, I only see one box for "Exempt". Either taxable or non-taxable.
Unfortunately, County Taxes (where I am anyway) are applied REGARDLESS of non-profit or not. So, the "Exempt" box is problematic.
It's Illegal here to exempt anyone from Hotel/Bed taxes unless there is a specific waiver.
Has anyone using ResKey dealt with this issue? It looks like ResKey is down for the count with us if this can't be resolved. Smaller B&Bs (usually 4-5 rooms or less) don't have to deal with this tax issue. There's usually an exemption for small B&Bs. Hence, ResKey may work VERY well for many of you....but not larger properties. We have 20 rooms. I've talked to John, and while he understands our dilemma, ResKey (at this time at least) does not have a way to select for State Sales tax and Local Bed Tax. Either both or neither. Drat.
