I of course to not need to collect sales tax since there isn't any sales tax in Oregon...
"See the math" says:
I don't see any math, so that's a silly label. In any case...
Based on the location, the ship to location, 1) it doesn't matter if the customer is tax exempt because there is no tax in Oregon. 2) There should be no sales tax at all. Nothing to calculate, and nothing to complain about with messages stating that I'm not set up.
It seems more accurate to say that QuickBooks is not programmed properly because it should know that there is nothing to complain about and nothing to calculate.
Oh, and it gets better!
I sure hope no one is collecting sales tax "for this agency" because they don't want it:
I double checked to be sure: https://www.oregon.gov/dor/programs/businesses/pages/sales-tax.aspx

Oregon doesn't have a general sales or use/transaction tax. However, Oregon does have a vehicle use tax that applies to new vehicles purchased outside of the state. The tax must be paid before the vehicle can be titled and registered in Oregon.

So, I really don't think QuickBooks needs to ask me this question.

That's nice. But, there are no sales tax implications for Oregon. There is no sales tax for which to have an implication. Why is that hard for Intuit to understand?
Hi Big Red, something not mentioned by the moderator is that QBO has a new sales tax system that you have to opt into, at least until they make it mandatory for everyone to use. I wonder if the notice you are getting is like an error message saying that you can't do what you are doing because you haven't opted in to the new system yet. I am not on the new system myself. In fact, I am going to post a question about that, since the persistent reminder to do so has not reminded me lately and I do want to opt in. If you are on the old system and you opt in to the new, I suggest you do that during the weekend so that your biz doesn't come to a grinding halt with surprises after the changeover.
