Hi judah3505-gmail-,

 

I can see how having the ability to set a default sales tax would be beneficial. QuickBooks Online is constantly evolving, and our awesome product development team is busy working on future updates. I can explain where default tax codes can be set up.

 

When you set up your supplier, you can set a default expense account, and you can set a sales tax code on the expense account. This article details how to set up the default tax code for an account in the Chart of Accounts; Create subaccounts in your chart of accounts in QuickBooks Online. The supplier module doesn't have an option for setting a tax code for the supplier, and you'd need to use the expense account workaround.

 

If you think having the option to set a default tax code for suppliers would make a good addition to the product, I invite you to provide feedback.

 

You can let the product development team know your suggestions by:

  1. Go to the Gear Icon.
  2. Select Feedback.
  3. Fill in the details of your inspired ideas, and click Submit feedback.

Have an amazing day, and reach back out if you need anything.
