Apply taxes to an invoice

Taxes are calculated automatically on an invoice once you perform several set-up tasks. You need to first set up tax rates and tax groups, and add tax groups to projects and services as necessary. Also, you need to identify relevant activities as taxable.

  4. Select
    Setup
    Service Templates
    and select any tax groups that you want to associate with the template.
  5. Select
    Setup
    Project Templates
    . The

    field defaults to
    Service
    , but you can choose a specific tax group in this field by selecting
