Here's how you can include the sales tax amount in your ZenMaid invoice template.

Step 1: Job Estimation

  • First, input your tax percentage through Job Estimation so that tax is immediately calculated in the invoice. From your ZenMaid dashboard, go to Settings > Job Estimation.

  • On the next page under Tax Settings, add and specify your tax rate. Click the Make default button to set a tax rate (if you have multiple) as default. You may choose on your specified tax rates when creating appointments.

  • Don't forget to click on the Save Changes button at the bottom.

Step 2: Emails & Texts

  • Next up, format your ZenMaid Invoice template to reflect the service tax rate.

  • Go to Settings > Emails & Texts.

  • Under the Email Templates, click on the Invoice tab.

  • Make sure that you have the necessary wildcards in your invoice. 

{{appointment.price_with_tax}} 

and if you want to give them a breakdown of the cost of tax and cost of appointment without tax use the wildcards below:

{{appointment.sales_tax}}

{{appointment.price_without_tax}} 

  • Hit on the Save Changes button.
