Debugging Tax Calculations (Taxware)
If you are using the Taxware tax interface, you can use Debug fields
on the Tax
Interface Parameters form to help find and correct problems
with your tax interface calculations.
Note: Do not
turn on the debug options unless you have a problem with the interface.
When debugging is turned on, large amounts of data are written to
the database, which can affect system performance.
To set up debugging of your tax interface:
- In the Tax Interface Parameters
form, select a debug option:
- Debug Taxware: Select
this option to create a taxware.dbg
file on the database server. Relevant tax entries are logged in
this file as they occur. With this option, you must also
specify a Debugging File Directory
on the database server that will hold the taxware.dbg file.
This file can be sent to Taxware technical support upon request.
- Debug Infor: Select this
option to log tax entries in the application database as they
occur. Later, you can click Export to File to save these
entries to a local text file that can be sent to Infor technical
support.
- Save your changes on the form. At this point, the system starts
logging any relevant information as users perform actions that involve
tax calculations.
- When you have a good sample of transactions involving taxation,
send the file to Support:
- If you are using the Debug Infor option, click Export
to File and save the file (by default, TaxInterfaceDebug.txt)
to a local folder. Send the file to Infor support so they can
help you solve issues related to the tax interface.
- If you are using the Debug Taxware option, send the
taxware.dbg file to Taxware support so they can help you
solve issues related to the tax interface.
- If you are using the Debug Infor option, click Delete
All to remove the debug log entries from the database after they
have been exported to the file.
- Clear the Debug Infor and/or
Debug Taxware option to stop
logging entries.
