Adding Surcharge to Invoice metro 07-23-2008

I need to figure out how to add a fuel surcharge of 14% to an invoice. It
will need to calculate on the original pre-tax amount and do it automaticlly
on certain invoices when needed. Is this possible? How do you do it?

thanks

Yes it is possible. It is done by using a combination of items classified as
subtotals and other charges. Look up the word surchage in the QB help for
details.

Partially possible, yes. How QB will know when it is needed and when
not to do so automatically is beyond my ken of how you would do that.

To do the surcharge, create an Item and make it the proper percentage
and then enter a subtotal item, then the surcharge item.

I don't see there's a way to automate it other than to memorized the
resulting invoice.
