# 3.2 Tax Codes Setup

Zambia Compliance via DigiTax requires ERPNext tax configurations to  be aligned with ZRA SIS tax codes to ensure correct calculation and  reporting of taxes during transaction submission.

- Item Tax Templates must be mapped to the correct SIS tax codes to  ensure item-level taxes are correctly interpreted and validated during  submission.
- Sales Taxes and Charges Templates must also be mapped to the correct  SIS tax codes to ensure invoice-level tax calculations are accurately  reflected.

This alignment ensures consistency between ERPNext tax processing and  SIS requirements, enabling accurate tax reporting and successful  submission through DigiTax.
