I am using a different machine and do not have PT available, but I
believe my PT is 2005.

This state, NC, has adopted the practice that companies with a tax
number will report their own sales tax rather than paying sales tax to
the vendor.

Fine. It is easy to set up invoices to take care of that.

But how can PT be set up to account for the taxes we pay directly on our
purchases? Some of the purchases are taxed at 1% and others at the full
rate, state and county.

A real problem, so far as I can tell.

I would say the easiest is to manually record the sales tax paid by using
the info on the invoice you paid. Just post it to a Sales tax payable
account. If you need to track amount paid on your purchases separately by
jurisdiction then you might set up items or separate G/L accounts to capture
the taxes you need to report. Look at your reporting requirements and then
taylor your CoA or items accordingly.

Thanks.

That is the perfect KISS method.

I should have thought of that, but I was trying my best to make it hard.
