Question for business owners operating in a non-sales tax state and also in a state with sales tax

[bonny]

I normally operate in Oregon and we don't have a sales tax.  I'm adding a new location across the river in Washington this summer so I'll have to collect their sales tax.  For those of you who are in a similar situation, how did you set up your Square account to accommodate in-person tax/no-tax  transactions?

Each Location that you create in your Square Account can have different settings for Sales Tax.

Under Account & Settings -> My Business -> Locations

Set up the new location. 

And then under

Account & Settings -> Payments -> Sales Tax

Create your sales tax settings for each location.

It is best to do this logged into the dashboard on your computer in the browser.
