How to manage your taxes and generate reports

Mascot provides accounting and reporting tools to help manage your taxes and streamline reporting for your accountant or accounting software. However, Mascot does not handle or capture sales tax, produce 1099s, or pay your taxes—these activities are managed through the sales channels and marketplaces where inventory is sold.
