Hi there,
QuickBooks Online makes it easy to add a tax rate and I'll be happy to guide you through the steps.
How to set up a new sales tax code
- From the left menu, select Taxes.
- Select Sales Tax. (Tip: If you use payroll in QuickBooks Online, you may need to select Sales Tax as opposed to Payroll Tax.)
- Select Manage sales tax.
- Select Add tax.
- Under What type of tax do you want to add? select Add next to one of the below options and follow the prompts to complete set up.
For Provincial:
- This option will automatically set up any new agencies necessary (such as new PST agencies) and the most common codes for that province/territory.
- It will prompt you to choose a province or territory from the drop-down. (Tip: Only provinces that you haven't yet set up will be listed.)
For Group rate:
- This option will let you combine any existing tax codes into a “combo rate”.
- For additional information on group sales tax rates check out How do I add a group sales tax rate?
