The Supplemental Tax Report provides a breakdown of supplemental taxes collected during the selected date range. Supplemental taxes are any additional tax rates applied on top of the standard store tax—for example, county-level surtax, city tax, and state tax.
This report shows how much supplemental tax was charged, which jurisdictions it applies to, and which invoices generated that tax.

Before Running the Supplemental Tax Report
The Supplemental Tax Report is designed for stores that use Supplemental Tax Codes—an optional feature in HITS that allows you to apply additional tax layers such as city, county, or special district taxes.
If your store uses supplemental tax, these codes and packages must be configured in advance for the report to show accurate results.
If supplemental taxes are not used at your store, this report will return blank or minimal data.
For stores that do use supplemental tax, please refer to the setup guide here: Configuring Supplemental Tax Codes & Packages
Important: HITS Support cannot provide tax rate percentages or advise which tax jurisdictions apply. For rate information, please contact your CPA or local tax authority.
Once supplemental tax items and packages are configured, the Supplemental Tax Report will accurately summarize taxable sales and supplemental tax collected for each jurisdiction.
