Inventory

Hello

We live in WI and we have difficult sales and use tax rules.  As an electrical contractor some things are taxable and some I have to pay use tax on.  We have well over 1,000 items in our inventory.   When working a project that is non taxable, we currently have to look up the cost of each item individually, record this amount on a spread sheet, calculate sales tax and add to the item, then add markup to that.  Obviously this is taking WAY too much time to create invoices.  I am wondering two things:

1.  Is it possible to put item cost on the invoice to only be seen by us.  (This would reduce the need to look up each individual item)?

2.  If not.... Can I make the item prices the item cost and create different price levels for regular markup versus sales tax plus markup?

Thanks
