I once saw a clever solution on OGS for booking use tax to the GL
automatically without messing up the AP subsystem. It involved creating a tax
code for the tax rate to be used, and an offsetting tax code for the same
rate but negative. Put the tax code with its corresponding negative rate in
the same tax table then set the vendor master to use that rate table.

That creates a net tax amount of zero on the AP invoice, but also creates
positive and negative ATX records. You can then create configurable macros to
book the debit amount to sales tax expense and the credit to Use Tax Payable.
If you want to get fancy you can macro off the state and track the amounts
payable in individual accounts.

Search OGS for the full blown technical explanation.

Best Wishes,
