New Purchase Order Tax Field

Many NC eProcurement entities are tax exempt but others, including Community Colleges and School Systems, are still taxable. NC eProcurement orders from non-tax-exempt entities will have an additional field: 'GRAND TOTAL AMOUNT INCLUDING TAX AND OTHER COSTS.'

This field calculates the tax and any designated other costs to generate a new Grand Total for the order. The dollar amount in this new field is the new total amount vendors should use for invoicing. 

Attached to each order notification email is an HTML version of the Purchase Order. To find the Grand Total including Tax on these attached versions:

Open the document. The Amount shown in the header is pre-tax.

Scroll down the Purchase Order to reach the ‘Other Information’ section, in the same location as the Purchase Order email notification.

If a single line needs to be invoiced, taxes and other costs are listed individually for each line item on the purchase order and can be added to the line item subtotal.
