What is the purpose of General sales taxes under the terms of delivery

Hi,

I am not able to find a purpose of the sales tax located under the terms of delivery. because currently I have the sales tax group attached to all my delivery addresses so whenever I change my delivery address on the purchase order the sales tax group is populated based on that address. so what is really the purpose of that sales tax on the terms of delivery?

    Sales tax applicability on shipping charges is based on whether you take title of the goods at the point of departure or the destination.  If terms of delivery are FOB origin, then you take title as soon as the goods leave the supplier's dock and may be charged sales tax on the shipping costs.  If terms of delivery are FOB destination, you don't take title until the goods reach your facility and might be able to avoid the sales tax on shipping.

    Hi Frank, thank you for your explanation however would it be possible to show how to configure the sales tax in case of the supplier charges taxes as soon as it leaves the supplier dock. Knowing that sales taxes are already set up in the system but how can I apply the sales taxes from a configuration prospective.
