@ bwagner If Mac is anything like windows, you can not, if sales tax is turned on it will fill in the sales tax line with a zero amount. If you remove the sales tax block from the footer of the invoice, QB just adds a line in the description area for sales tax and a zero amount There is a cheat in windows, bring up the invoice template for a non sales tax invoice, right click on the sales tax title and data blocks and select properties, select font and change the color to white, do that for the borders too - QB will still print the sales tax but it will print white and not be easily seen - assumes you are using white paper of course. @ bwagner If Mac is anything like windows, you can not, if sales tax is turned on it will fill in the sales tax line with a zero amount.

If you: 1) are on a Mac 2) Never charge sales tax Try this: First, just to be thorough.Go to the Customer:Job information under Lists and make sure you UNcheck the box about sales tax under the Additional Info tab Go to the Layout Editor, and make sure you UNcheck the box regarding sales tax in the Fields editor FINALLY, I found my solution in the Preferences area. Choose Preferences from the QuickBooks drop-down menu in the top left corner of your Mac.
Choose Sales Tax (5th item, 3rd row) UNcheck 'customers are charged sales tax'. This will only work if your WHOLE BUSINESS is non-sales tax like ours (consulting).
I hope this helped! I think I found a solution on QB for Mac: 1.
Feb 20, 2011 - You're probably deleting the customer in QuickBooks POS that matches. You will be prompted to delete the duplicate record in QuickBooks as well. Pro for Mac to the current version of 2016 for Mac since uploading the El.
In Preferences > Sales Tax, leave the 'customers are charged sales tax' box CHECKED. (I know this doesn't make sense - just go with it.) Make sure 'most common sales tax' pull-down is set to 'no tax'. On the invoice window, in the bottom row of 5 boxes, I have the '%' icon toggled to light grey (as opposed to dark grey). Fiddle with it until it's the lighter color. Below my items on the invoice, there's a pulldown that says 'no tax', and next to it says 0.0%.
Leave it be, even though next to it there's a line item for 0.00 above the total. Again - just go with it. Now, when I go to preview or print my invoice - voila, no tax! Why did this work? How did I get it to work?
I have no idea. But hopefully it will work for you. It's nice to see you in the Community thread. I can help remove the sales tax line in an invoice on a PC/Windows.
All you need to do is turn it off in the company preferences if you won't be charging a sales tax. Let me show you how: • Go to Edit menu and click Preferences. • Select Sales Tax on the left side panel and click the Company Preferences tab. • Choose No in Do you charge sales tax?
• Click OK when done. You can check out this link for more information about setting up sales tax in QuickBooks Desktop:. That should do it. Let me know if you have other questions about sales tax.
