Rustler’s Quickbooks Tips

When you create an invoice for taxable items QB prints the sales tax on the invoice, but when the invoice is non-taxable QB prints nothing to show that the invoice is non-taxable. I guess the omission of the sales tax entry is enough in Intuits opinion.

If you need or want the invoice to show the non-taxable status there is two ways to go about it.

When you bring up the invoice, click the button customize, then click the tab “Footer” there is a sales tax entry there that you can check mark to show on the footer when the invoice is printed. For non-taxable sales it will show zero percent.

If that isn’t good enough, create a customized invoice, call it non-tax, and insert a text field that says Non-Taxable, make it as large as you want and in the color you want. Then use that invoice when creating a non-taxable sale.
