When an item is discounted, sales tax is calculated on the discounted price shown on the invoice, even though tax was paid on the full retail cost when the product was purchased from the company. Boulevard tracks the difference as non‑recovered sales tax and provides reports to help review these amounts, with an option to charge tax on full retail for specific invoices when needed.
A report of any non-recovered sales tax for a specified date range can be obtained by printing the Non-Recovered Sales Tax Summary report. You can then print the corresponding invoices from the Invoice Log.
Tax can be calculated on the full retail amount on an individual invoices by enabling the option in the Tax field. However, we strongly recommend contacting the company, your tax professional, or your local taxing authority for more information to ensure your business handles each tax situation correctly before charging full retail tax on discounted items.
