I’m making an estimate and suddenly I have to add tax rate and tax. How to eliminate this?

It’s nice to see you in the Community, skiller1972-aol-.


We’ll have to untick the Tax column on the estimate to prevent it from calculating the tax rate. I’m here to help that you can perform this task in just a few clicks.


Here’s how:

 

  1. Press the New menu and choose Estimate under Customers.
  2. On the Estimate page, click the Customer drop-down and select your client’s name.
  3. Enter the transaction date in the Estimate date box.
  4. Input the correct item or service in the Product/Service column.
  5. Uncheck the box for Tax to prevent the estimate from calculating the tax rate.
  6. Click Save and close.tax rate.1.pngtax rate.2.pngtax rate.1.pngtax rate.2.png

Feel free to leave a comment below if you have any other sales tax or estimate concerns. I’ll be glad to assist further. Have a great weekend ahead.
