The Sharp ER-A320 can have 4 different tax rates. Make sure you are programming the correct rate. Also make sure you program the departments to be taxable by the correct tax rate. Just because you program a tax rate into the Sharp ER-A320 does not mean it will calculate tax, the department must also be programmed. Following are the steps for Tax Programming of the Sharp ER-A320 Cash Register.
Turn the mode lock key to the PGM position
Press 2711
Press the . (Decimal Button)
Press the @/For button
Press 1 (for tax rate one, replace with tax rate you wish to program)
Press the @/For Button
Enter the Tax Rate 00.0000 (DO NOT USE THE DECIMAL KEY. The decimal will be placed automatically example for 8.8% you would enter 88000)
Press the @/For Button

Here is an example of the keystrokes for programming tax rate 1 for 8.8% in the Sharp ER-A320 cash register with everything of $0.01 and up being taxable. Remember the key must be in program mode.
