Wow. Will try now!
We've tried all this and we think QBO isn't correctly applying taxable income to it - when it is set to do that. Causing me to fund $6 a month for the taxable fees.
It looks like even though the convenience fee income is marked as taxable in QuickBooks, it’s still not charging sales tax-Please see the attached transaction report. Please let me know what we should do. Thanks again for all your help with this :)

is also not charging additional sales tax to the client.
We do not have another solution other than this is likely a result of a technical issue.
