Being able to automatically calculate sales tax would be great. However, we can only add them manually in QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE). You'll have to create a specific sales tax line item by following these steps:
Go to the Invoices menu.
Select Create invoice.
Select Add product or service.
Select the Product or Service dropdown and then + Add new.
Enter "Manual sales tax" for the name and enter your sales tax rate.
You can also share your thoughts and ideas through your account. Our product development team reviews all the feedback we receive to ensure we’re meeting the needs of our customers.
