Tax on repairs
Tax for repairs in just over half of the states here in the US is based on parts only not labor. The system currently only allows Taxable or Tax exempt, we need a way to calculate taxes based on the retail price of the parts used for the repair.
One suggestion is to add an additional field to the repair item for labor cost. If a value is added in this field then this amount would be taken off the total price when calculating tax. This would have to show up on the invoice\ticket so it could be adjusted if needed.
Usman, what we talked about would not work, you would still have to have the full repair cost entered so the API for repairs worked. If you change the system to use the repair as the labor then the cost of the parts used on the ticket in to the POS system first it would mean everyone would have to reconfigure the costs and the API for repairs would not work correctly.
We released this feature a while ago and if you want to charge tax on repair cost only please head to settings >> module settings >> repairs >> and enable charge tax on part cost price only.
Once enable when you will book a repair job it will only charge sales tax as long you have selected a part on step 4. For more details please email support@repairdesk.co
