How to add taxes when creating a new lease in Plexflow


This article explains how to add the applicable taxes (GST and QST) when setting up a new rent in Plexflow.
This step is particularly useful for commercial leases, where taxes must be applied directly to the rent amount.


Steps


Step 1 – Select the desired unit


In the Properties module, open the commercial unit in question.


Step 2 – Prepare new rent


In the Rents section, click the Prepare new rent button.

Step 3 – Choose the lease type


Select Use an existing lease or Create a new digital lease.


Normally, in most commercial lease cases, Use an existing lease is chosen, because the contract is managed outside Plexflow.

When you get to the Tax line, click Manage to add or change the available taxes.
