The F248: TAXSHIP parameter was used in prior version of the system to determine whether sales tax was charged by the system on the shipping charges on each invoice.
If the shipping charges for each invoice were taxable, this parameter was set to "Y". If shipping charges for each invoice were not subject to sales tax, this parameter was set to "N". This parameter was used prior to the addition of the Tax Shipping flag in the Taxcode file (which allows you to specify treatment of shipping charges for each Taxcode) and is also used as the default if the Tax Shipping flag in the Taxcode records are blank.
