Hello there, @REI.
Let's perform some troubleshooting steps to ensure you can associate a sales tax location when creating an invoice in QuickBooks Point of Sales.
One of the possible reasons why the created sales tax location isn't populating when entering an invoice is that your company file had a data issue. To verify, let's run the Verify and Rebuild Utility tool to fix this unusual behavior. This is the first step in resolving potential data issues. Here's how:
- Open your QuickBooks Point of Sale.
- Go to the File menu, then select Utilities and choose Rebuild Data.
- Select OK when you see the message "QuickBooks detected no problem with your data". You may continue using your company file.
- If Verify finds an issue with your data, you will be prompted to Rebuild Now or View Errors.
- Click Rebuild Now.
If you still get errors upon verifying the data, you can check out this article for more troubleshooting steps: Resolve Potential Data Issues in QuickBooks Desktop.
