I am trying to set up a seprate company that I plan on using just for tracking the purchases of supplies (like office supplies and shop supplies). So far I think it is looking like it will owrk for what I want... However, I am having trouble figuring out how to write a PO with taxable items.  I see the field on the Totals Tab for Taxable Purchases and my po for prints a line for Sales Tax, but I'm stuck on how to get the items to show tax. Any suggestions?

I have tried adding a Tax Class and so on...

I feel like I must be missing something simple...

Thanks

Do you have your sales tax codes and sales tax schedules set up (Library Master | Set ?  How did you set up the tax code as it pertains to Expense to Vendor Item?  Is sales tax turned on in AP Set up Options (Tab one)?  Did you do anything with Sales tax account maintenance (under AP | Setup | Sales Tax account maintenance).  Is the sales tax schedule assigned to the vendor in Vendor maintenance?

The items themselves have to be coded as taxable also.

Are you creating inventory items or miscellaneous item codes? 

Inventory Items get a  sales tax class and purchase tax class on tab 2.

Miscellaneous Items have the tax class on tab 1.

Even using " * " items is indicated with a tax class in the miscellaneous item maintenance.
