This window is used to override the job tax rate only for the detail line you are currently working on. As an example, this might be necessary if your job spans one or more counties using different tax rates for different bid items.
To change the tax rate, click Override tax rate and then enter the tax rate in the field on the right. When finished, click OK.
This process is especially useful if you are working in or in relation to one of the handful of states that does not charge sales tax when purchasing construction materials.

Whatever the reason is, SharpeSoft makes it quick and easy to change tax rates on the fly.
