how to deal with products with no gst from wholesaler
I have some products I have purchased from a human wholesaler for which there is no GST applied by the wholesaler. There doesn't appear to be an obvious way to deal with these in the deliveries workspace. The GST is being automatically applied to the purchase price.
They need to have no GST applied on arrival but have GST charged when sold. Any ideas on how I can overcome this?

Re: how to deal with products with no gst from wholesaler
Here's how I believe it works.
When calculating what tax to apply to a product during delivery, price calculations and customer invoicing it looks at the product to see if any taxes are defined. If none then it looks at the products product type. If none it looks at the practice.
Now typically no taxes exist in the first two and the default practice tax is used i.e GST 10% in the Australian case.
Now if we add a new Tax Type i.e. NOGST with 0% and then link this to the product this will stop the tax calculation on supplier deliveries and invoicing but unfortunately will also do the same when invoicing the product to the customer.
This needs to be addressed somehow as I can see this being an issue not only for this scenario but for others in areas with even more complex tax rules.

how to deal with products
Using a new tax rule of no GST certainly deals with things on the input side, but will create problems if these items are sold.
My work around for now is going to be to just sell these items as a miscellaneous items. It's no big deal at present as currently only syringes and needles are affected and are unlikely to be sold OTC in substantial quantities.
For a full resolution would it be possible to have a separate tax rule on the input and output side?
