Here is what you do. After you close for the day on June 30, 2006 or before you open for business on July 1, 2006 you will enter FloristWare at the "Manager" level and click the "Settings" button. From there you will select "Taxes: Rates" and click the "Continue" button.

On the next screen you will enter the new GST rate. Quit FloristWare, restart and you're ready to go.

It really is that simple. It is however very important,so if you have any questions please do not hesitate to call.
