We are using Quickbooks Desktop Premier in Quebec, Canada with the Contractor Edition. We have just embarked on a job costing project...never done this before.
We have been recording all our vendor bills and assigning them to jobs and checking the billable box. So far so good. We've been able to run a report that shows all the unbilled costs by job by vendor and all looks great! In Quebec, Canada, we have GST and QST. The unbilled costs by job by vendor report shows the expenses before GST and QST which is correct.
However, when it is time to invoice the customer:job and the menu appears where we have to select the unbilled expenses we want to invoice, they appear with taxes included. It should not do this. The expenses that we bill to the customer should appear before taxes. Then we could decide to charge or not charge the tax by checking the box "these expenses are taxable".
This is soooo frustrating because we spent a month going to every bill and assigning them to jobs and making them billable so we could automate our job costing and invoicing to our customers.
Can anyone help with this??
