Hello there, @LupitaG-2019.

 

I'd like to add additional steps to what john-pero provided above on how you can add sales tax on your invoices.

 

Adding sales tax on invoices can be done in just a few clicks.

 

Here's how:

  1. From the QuickBooks Edit menu, click Preferences.
  2. On the Preferences window, click Sales Tax then go to the Company Preferences tab.
  3. Click the Yes radio button to turn on sales tax.
  4. Set up the sales tax items or sales tax groups for each county, district, city, etc. where you collect sales tax. Click Add sales tax item to do this.
  5. Assign Sales tax code.
  6. Set the Sales tax basis (Accrual or Cash). Take into account your company’s accounting a preference.
  7. Set up your preference for paying the sales tax (Monthly, Quarterly, Annually).
  8. Click OK.

For complete details about setting up sales tax, please check out this link: Set up sales tax in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Once done, you can create an invoice or an estimate, and a tax column will now appear on your sales form. I've attached a screenshot for your visual reference:

There you go!
