Hello everyone I just got quickbooks online and I'm getting ready to send my first invoice.
The issue I ran into is that I can't seem to find how to add GST to the invoice.
I've included a picture below.
Thank you very much your help I appreciated.
Best answer December 22, 2017Welcome to the Community, I'd be happy to help with your questions about invoicing
In order to add GST to the invoice, you'll first need to set it up in the Sales Tax Center listed under Taxes from the left menu. The following article includes steps on how to add and edit tax rates: https://community.intuit.com/articles/1145271 .
Once set up, you'll have the option to select the tax if it applies to that particular transaction. The screenshot below will show you where it's located on the invoice.

I saw the video, but my self-employed QuickBooks does not have a Sales tab, so I can't set up the taxes for the client I am billing.
I need to bill for services, and I need two lines on the invoice: (1) hours worked, rate, and total and (2) GST on that amount, specifying the GST number.
I have no idea how to do that.

I'm here to share some information on how you can add sales tax in your invoices.
Currently, the ability to set up and automatically calculate Sales tax in QuickBooks Self-Employed is not yet available. What you can do is to add a line item for sales tax and enter the amount of the sales tax manually.
If you're looking to managing sales tax in invoices, we recommend QuickBooks Online. To further check which QuickBooks versions best suit your business, please click this link: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/online-compare/
On the other hand, our Product Developers are planning on adding more tools and features to this program in the months ahead, so be sure to keep an eye on our blog for announcements: https://intuit.me/2L2zqTv.
If there are any app features you’d like to get more familiar with, feel free to visit our Community page. I’m always here to help.
February 06, 2020 02:56 PMI've just started using QuickBooks Online. Our restaurant has it's own Point of Sales system that tracks the sales, payment types, and calculates the GST payable. To enter these values into QuickBooks, I've been following a guide to set up a reoccurring Sales Receipt. The only issue that I am running into is that QuickBooks automatically calculates a slightly different value of GST (off by $5 for the week).
How do I best adjust this figure to match the POS (franchise restaurant, so I can't audit or edit the POS, but I do want to make my files match it completely for accuracy)? I tried making a product to manually enter GST instead of having the sales items trigger it, but it won't let me set up a product and direct it to the GST Payable account.
Thank you for your guidance,
