Bug: sales tax applied to non-taxable, variable-priced items

[cbstl]

We recently started experiencing a bug in the Square dashboard. When adding a variable-priced item that is configured as non-taxable to an invoice, Square is applying the sales tax anyway. We then have to go back into the line item and uncheck the sales tax checkbox, even though it was unchecked in the first place. This short video shows what I'm talking about (you can actually see the unchecked checkbox get automatically checked when the Save button is pressed):

It does not happen with fixed-price, non-taxable items but is happening with all variable-price, non-taxable items.

Square - please fix! 🙂

Hey @cbstl, thank you for bringing this to my attention. I see how frustrating to have to go back in and uncheck the tax. 

I am happy to look into this for you. To confirm, what browser are you using?

My apologies - I did not ever see this reply. The browser we're using is Chrome.

@MayaP - Is there any progress on this? It's been several months and my team says it's still happening.

Thank you @MayaP. Any chance you could also initiate a ticket for the following problem I posted on these forums that has had no movement for several months?:
