If you change the tax code suffix for any tax code calculation, that suffix will be saved on the coding as a permanent suffix. For each subsequent tax code calculation the system will apply any permanent suffix value that is on the record to calculate the code.

You can remove the permanency of the suffix by selecting the dashes in the drop-down. This will remove the permanent suffix from the record and restore the system generated suffix to any future tax code calculated.
