How do I turn on/off sales tax tracking?

If you work only with tax-exempt charities or non-profit organizations, or your area has no sales tax, you can turn off sales tax tracking. You need to do this in two places: first delete the column from the invoice or estimate layout, then delete the sales tax account.

Add or remove the Sales Tax column from the invoice

1. Select the Business tab.
2. Select Business Actions → Invoices and Estimates →  Design Invoice Forms.
3. Click Layout and choose the invoice form you want to edit.
4. Select or deselect the Sales Tax check box to change the status..
5. Close the Design Invoice Form window.

Add/remove tax tracking for a business/invoice account

1. Right-click on the account you want to turn on sales tax tracking for.
2. Select Edit/Delete account.
3. On the General tab, select Yes or No for Tax-tracking enabled. 
   • Yes will turn on tax tracking
   • No will turn off tax tracking
4. Select OK.
