Ah, yes, I can see from the picture sales tax was a line item.  Using the sales tax district is a better idea.  But if you choose to continue the old way, just switch the qty and price for the sales tax so that you can "receive" partials based on the invoice amount.

Switching quantity and price is a solution that has been recommended before.  I would certainly hope that Sage would recognize this as not optimal and find a different solution.  Switching price and quantity only adds confusion to the purchasing process, and it is hard enough as a contractor to ensure that the volume of goods and materials ordered/received is accurate without complicating the process like this.  We switched to Sage 100 in January, and it has been a rocky transition for a number of reasons.  At this point, I would not recommend this software.

The sales tax district at the top does not add a line item on the PO, it adds it to the totals at the bottom.  So if you stop adding tax manually to your POs it will eliminate the issue.
