   To enter additional quotation pricing information:

1. Select the More alternative region in the Quotation Price Breaks window.

2. Enter the line number. Purchasing provides line numbers in increments of one.

3. Select Taxable to indicate that the item is taxable. If you entered an item in the Quotation Lines window, Purchasing defaults the taxable status from the item record. If you do not enter a predefined item, Purchasing defaults this value from the Default region of the Purchasing Options window. See: Defining Items. See: Defining Default Options.

4. Enter or use the default Tax Name for taxable items.

The tax name defaults from the following sources, in the following order:

You can accept the default tax name or select another. If you need additional help with how tax defaulting works in Purchasing, see: Tax Defaults in Purchasing.
