AP Use Tax - Am I missing a setup somewhere or did I explain it incorrectly to client? Client wants to start tracking use tax on AP purchases. Simple enough. I went through and set up the tax codes and schedules, Modified AP set up to enable sales tax reporting (tab 1) and calculate sales tax in A/P data entry (tab 3). It is (was) my understanding that when a voucher was entered that had associated use tax, that MAS would impute the use tax, debit the expense account and credit the use tax liability account (e.g. supplies - $100, supplies use tax 6%, or $6 credit AP $100, credit use tax liability for $6). What is happening is the $100 debit and credit, no use tax transactions are being posted to GL. The use tax REPORT is showing activity correctly. Client is on v4.4 PU 2 Thoughts..........

From the Help menu: ""Use tax does not affect the invoice total. During general ledger posting, the use tax amount is posted to the Nonrecoverable Tax account and offset to the A/P Use Tax account, as defined in Division Maintenance or Sales Tax Account Maintenance.

Is it possible the control accounts for use tax expense and payable are the same number resulting in a wash for the GL posting?

Interesting. So are they (help) saying that you won't even see the posting on tab two. I could swear that the last time I did this, you did see the tax on tab two..............

Epilogue - MUST have non recoverable amount field in tax code maintenance marked at 100%.

Glad you solved it and thanks for the heads-up.
