With quick books online. How do you activate tax to be calculated on invoices

Hi there,

Collecting and remitting the Sales Tax is an important part of managing your business. With QuickBooks Online, you can easily setup Sales Tax so you can include it in the relevant transactions. To do so, follow these steps:

1. Select Taxes from the left menu
2. Select Set up sales tax
3. Select your province or territory
4. Select Save
5. Provide the Start of tax period and Filing frequency
6. Select the Reporting method
7. Enter your GST/HST number if applicable
8. Select Next
9. Select Got it

Check this community article if you want to add the taxes of a different province or set up a new sales tax code.

Feel free to reach out if you need help with anything else.

I see the taxes button on the left hand menu but it does nothing.... 

Hi Blade Contracting,

If you click the menu and nothing happens then it may be due to either your Cache and cookies or the browser you are using. I can help you with this.

Since QuickBooks Online is a web based program it rely's on your browser for it to work properly. One reason your browser could cause issues is your Cache and cookies being corrupted. You can clear them by using the steps in this link. Another thing you can try is using a different browser such as Chrome or Firefox. If you are already using Chrome you can also try incognito mode.

If you continue to have issues i suggest contacting our support team as they would be able to offer more in depth one on one support. You can follow the steps in this link to contact them. 

Have a great night.
