Display Total including the Sales Tax:

I cannot find a spec field to do this. (I am using the field "Total Including Tax", but I am not getting the Tax!)

Note that we are entering the P/O initially with all Items back ordered – we obviously are not filling in the Received field at this time.

Example of what is happening:
Subtotal: 553.50
HST/GST: 71.96
Total: 553.50

The Total is wrong. How do we get this to display the correct amount (including the tax)?

Sam:

This works for me.

PO version?
Are you using the Extended spec form?

When you say that you are entering...with all items back ordered. This would be normal but as you mentioned it are you doing something to accommplish this? One possibility comes to mind is zeroing out the quantity ordered?

PO Version: 8.1A (100422)
Extended Spec: Yes

Note that when I look at the Total tab on the Purchase Order, on the bottom of this screen it displays HST with the correct value (on the right side of the screen). But, the "Plus tax" field (on the bottom left) displays $0.00.

Hi, Samuel,

As we found, there was nothing wrong with your spec. There were a couple of tax setup problems in PO though. Per the Help, the tax statuses in the PO company profile should be the same as those in AP. There were none in AP so you set them up.

And, within the tax group itself, the jurisdiction was set to a costing methog of 'None - GL only'. This means to send the tax to the GL but not to AP so that the tax is never really payable by the AP vendor. When you change this to 'Accounts Payable' and repost the order, the taxes correctly display in the Total Payable by Vendor on the order Totals tab and are included in the Total Including Tax spec code on your spec.
