One return. Two local mixes. Arlington has no transit line on the file.
Arlington city tax is 2%. There is no transit authority and no special-purpose district on this line. State tax of 6.25% plus the 2% city tax is the entire combined 8.25%. A second location in a city that pays Dallas MTA or a special district cannot share this code just because both totals say 8.25%.
Arlington is in Tarrant County. Tarrant Appraisal District is where the April 15 business personal property rendition goes. Combined sales tax is 8.25%. City tax is 2%. The Comptroller line lists no transit authority and no special-purpose district. State sales tax is 6.25%. State and city are the whole combined rate. Do not add a Dallas MTA slice because a different city on the same return has one. The franchise report is due May 15. A no-tax-due threshold may zero the tax and still leave a report to read. Dollar figures stay in the Comptroller's instructions. Texas personal income tax does not exist. Sales tax is filed on the monthly, quarterly, or yearly schedule volume assigned on the permit. A payroll week in a place that serves food fits the restaurant cleanup site. The fit is the deposit, not a count of dining rooms. The industries page covers other weeks.
Arlington is the store whose local tax is finished arithmetic, which is why a second store gets coded wrong. The fact block above is the whole rate: a 2% city tax, the state rate, no transit authority, no special district. A sister shop in a city that pays a transit authority or a named district cannot borrow this store's code, and this store cannot borrow theirs, even when both receipts print the same combined total. One tax code named after the company will pick a winner and apply it to both doors. Keep the doors in separate piles before you touch payroll, tips, or food cost. This page is about the city on the ticket. Export a day from the Arlington point of sale and a day from the other door. Sort by the city field, not by the deposit. Any Arlington ticket that carries a transit line does not belong. Any other-city ticket that shows only a 2% city tax with no district and no transit probably used Arlington's code by default. That sort is the whole correction. The bank deposit will not do it, because card fees and the batch total have already mixed the doors. A shared login is not a shared rendition. It must not treat tax collected at either door as revenue. Lift tax out per city before the report sees a sales number. Send the two day-exports with the city column intact. Mark the rows that used the wrong city's local pieces. Return the marked file before the next combined return is prepared, so the default code stops crossing doors. Spreadsheet exports are fine. Write the other city's name on the export before you send it. A file labeled location 2 is useless if the city on the tickets is still Arlington's code. The sort only works when the city string is the city's real name, not an internal store number. Label the second export with the real city name before it is useful. Store numbers are not city names. Spell the city. Spell both city names in the file name of the export.
Tips, card deposits, and a four-week close are the restaurant guide.
