This is what it looks like:
Now you can review the transactions for the sold items.
In addition, with the sales tax on the items sold, you can run the Sales Tax Liability Report. To know more details about this, I've got a reference for you here: Check how much sales tax you owe in QuickBooks Online.
Also, if you need in-depth consultation with your sales, I'd recommend contacting your accounting professional for the best advice to manage this data in your QuickBooks account.

This does not help me track use tax on items purchased exempt for resale, then sold exempt as a contract. These invoices have to have a way to track the use tax owed on the cost of goods.

When i run the report as stated above I am not getting COGS. We currently are using an outside POS system for sales. Not sure if this will affect the report outcome. Please see attached screenshot of report without COGS.
Thanks for a prompt reply, Brita2.
Based on the screenshot you provided, it appears that there is an inventory item with a zero amount. This suggests that using POS outside of QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) could potentially have an impact on your report. To resolve this, it's recommended that you contact the POS tech support you use to review the mappings of COGS.
Please note that it's normal for non-inventory parts to have no COGS, as COGS are only affected when you make a sale of inventory items.
