TIPS & TRICKS2USE

BEARBUY

Do I need to include shipping and sales tax when I create a purchase order (PO)?

No, shipping costs and sales tax are not included on the PO. The PO should be created with only the goods and services amount on the PO. The supplier can bill for the cost of the items, shipping and sales tax on their invoices and UCSF will pay for the full invoice amount.
