I need one item to be charged a different sales tax rate than another item on the same invoice (food and beverages are 8% in Rhode Island and everything else is 7%). Is that possible on one invoice?

Is there a need to set up account with local department of revenue? How to send in the sales tax to Department of Revenue? Thanks.

If you collect sales tax then yes you would need to get set up with your DOR. How you submit depends on the DOR but most likely they allow you to do it online

How would you set up sales tax on purchases from vendors (not to be paid later)?

[@QbuniversityOrg]

They are just part of the purchase. So if you buy $100 of office supplies and there is $6 sales tax, $106 gets classified as office supplies

Thank you very much, does it work the same way for COGS? We are a construction company and pay sales tax at the source to all of our vendors, so when we purchase tile, carpet, or lumber, should we include the sales tax as part of the purchase?@@QbuniversityOrg

Should had included Tax groups. This is only half of the information needed.
