## How to Define a Separate Rate for Excise (%) / Cess (%) Calculation in Sale Bill?

### Step-By-Step Guide:

* Open the **Sales Voucher Configuration**.
* Select the relevant **Billing Series**.
* Click on **"Other Settings- 2".** 
* Locate the option labeled: **"Rate for Excise Amount"**
  * This setting offers a dropdown with available rate options (e.g., MRP, Selling Price, Cost).
  * **MRP** is the most commonly used rate for calculating excise in many ERP systems.
