Add a Tax / Surcharge to a Purchase Order
1. Enable the Tax/Surcharge field to be available on the Purchase Order screen.
In order to use the Tax/Surcharge fields on a Purchase Order, we must begin by establishing a few settings in the Adminstration ➤ System Configuration window.
1.1. Open the System Configuration window.
Navigate to Administration ➤ System Configuration and select Purchase Order from the drop-down list.

1.2. Establish the Tax/Surcharge options.
There are two Tax/Surcharge fields available to be used on the Purchase Order screen. For each of these there are two options that need to be established.
- Tax/Surcharge Enable: True or False. Double-click to set this to True in order to be able to type into this field.
- Tax/Surcharge Name: Enter the field label that you want to appear next to the field on the Sales Order screen.
Click OK to save when you are finished.
