QuickBooks Online
When setting up your integration settings for QuickBooks Online, you may be asked "What tax rate do you use on transactions in QuickBooks?"
If you're seeing this setting, then you currently have your QuickBooks Online account set up to collect sales tax from your clients.
If you do in fact have a gross sales tax that you collect from your clients on jobs, you will want to select the correct default tax rate that CoConstruct should prompt QuickBooks to apply to estimates and invoices when pushing those transactions.

However, if you're seeing taxes being applied to your estimates and invoices being pushed from CoConstruct incorrectly, you may need to turn off your sales tax setup in QuickBooks.
