When presented with a Hobby Lobby tax exempt identification card, how do you ring up the sale?

When a customer presents a Hobby Lobby tax-exempt identification card, the proper procedure involves entering the customer details and pressing the tax-exempt button. This process ensures that the sale is correctly recorded as tax-exempt, complying with tax regulations and allowing the customer to make their purchase without being charged sales tax.

By entering the customer information, you ensure that the transaction is accurately associated with the registered tax-exempt status of the customer. Additionally, pressing the tax-exempt button adjusts the transaction total accordingly to remove applicable sales tax, thus providing the customer with the benefits of their exemption.

The other options do not correctly follow the necessary steps for processing a tax-exempt sale. Simply crediting the customer directly would not maintain the required transaction records. Scanning the card without further action could lead to an incomplete transaction. Finally, only ringing up items without tax neglects the protocol of properly processing tax-exempt sales, which could lead to compliance issues.
