How will taxes be calculated for my products?
Your taxes are customized as a percentage.
The amount of tax will be calculated based on a product’s or task’s cost.
Product and tax costs will initially exclude tax and If the tax needs to be applied, it will be calculated and presented on your estimate and invoice.
Tax as a value, not percentage

Don’t forget to hit Save when done with the Item Tables Settings, save the new template and also save this template as default:
You can also choose this template as a default one for your client:
Now on the Invoices, you will see the tax as a value:
And not as a percentage as it was before:
Once creating an Invoice, please make sure you are using the correct template in the preview.
Note: If there was a discount on the invoice, we show the tax amount without the discount on the line item and the final tax amount in the total, after the discount was applied:
