I am a service provider in BC, therefore my invoices only include GST. However, here in BC we pay GST and PST on materials that we purchase. I want to keep my tax configuration set to BC so that when I buy materials the system will properly calculate my materials cost, PST and GST portions. However when I send invoices to clients I only want GST applied.
In a web browser I have the ability to select which taxes I want applied, but in the QB Self-Employed app I can only toggle a 'tax' option that, when I am set to BC tax settings, will apply both PST and GST to the invoice. Basically it's "all or nothing". Is there a solution to this? I do almost all of my bookkeeping via the app, having to use a browser for all invoicing would be a non-starter for me.
I have been keeping my tax settings set to Alberta for the last 2 years and then every tax season I have to manually adjust all of the QB reports about my expenses to properly account for the PST that it's ignoring. I am tired of doing this.
