Hey Bell39,
What province are you in?
Check with the local tax authority first because here in BC there is no such thing as "ITC's" for PST which is why QBO does not track them.
Unfortunately for us, PST paid on purchase a is NOT refundable through your standard PST return
PST paid is just another cost which is why it is posted to the same ledger as the expense you are posting.
Maybe it is different where you are but here in BC we can only claim back PST 'paid in error' using a special form and lengthy process. π€―π
Like GST it is an "end-user" tax so If you are buying goods for resale they should be sold to you exempt of PST but
YOU have to tell them at point of sale.
I hope this helps get you on the right track
Please mark this answer as a helpful solution if it answers your question
