In "Print Bill" my sales tax prints on a separte sheet of paper. Annoying and wasteful. Can someone help me out?

Hi there ecarg,

 

It's great that you're looking to print your Bills through QuickBooks Desktop in a more environmentally friendly way. I can see how printing an extra page with your Bill just for sales tax might be cumbersome, so let me point you in the right direction.

 

In QuickBooks Desktop there isn't a setting that'll allow you to combine your sales tax and expense to print as one page. The sales tax will always print as a separate page from the Expense details and Bill Total. I know that this isn't how you'd like to see your Bills print, so in this case, submitting Feedback on this is a great option.

 

If you navigate to the Help menu, you can choose to Submit feedback online. This feedback goes directly to our product development team, and they'll take it into consideration when implementing new features and improving old ones. They love hearing suggestions from users like you, so it's important that you have your voice heard on this. I'll be sure to pass the suggestion along to my team as well.

 

One way that you can work around this issue is by exporting a Report and manipulating the data as necessary outside of QuickBooks. When you're viewing an open bill, navigate to the Reports tab at the top and run one of the available reports. The Transaction Journal shows a breakdown of the line items and sales tax, which you can print or export to Excel by hitting Excel, then Create new worksheet. You might also consider printing your Bill double-sided using your printer's settings if saving paper is your primary concern.

 

Let me know if there's anything further I can do to support you. Take care!
