We have to charge sales tax on some items and not others, plus we have to charge a different % for each county that we deliver. I set up new charts of accounts for each county tax, and then a fiscal position in each customers for the corresponding county. 2 questions...
(1) I have created each county sales tax office as a "vendor" for tax payments (I think that would be the correct processes). Once the tax has been posted into the corresponding counties chart of accounts, do I transfer the balance to another account to be drawn from for paid so it doesn't sit on the ledger?
(2) If you've done your posting of sales tax you know how complicated it is. Is there a report that I can pull to show the data I need to fill out the sales taxes? It's not as simple as most location based retail outlets. We have to enter the sales tax 1 at a time, per county so we have to enter sales total, total taxable amount, tax to be paid, etc...
