GST while processing AP Invoices in PO module

Question

Hello, 
 I'm looking at processing AP invoices in PO module and the issue I have is around GST. We are in Canada fyi. 
 We don't include GST on PO as tax and add GST line while entering invoice in AP module. But PO module won't allow entering any new lines. It's just about matching an Invoice to a receipt. 
 Does anybody use this functionality? How do you deal with GST? 
 Thank you, 
 Sergey

Sergey: we have a tax group set up in a/p for gst. Each vendor who collects gst from us has this tax group selected in the vendor's profile. In p/o, we first enter the purchase order for a given vendor. When the purchase order is filled, we then enter a receipt in p/o against that purchase order. We then enter the related invoice (before tax amount) in p/o against that receipt. GST is automatically calculated on the before tax amount. There is no need to enter any seperate line for gst. My interpretation is that the p/o module reads the tax group that is set up for the vendor in a/p and calculates the gst using this tax group for the vendor in question. The vendor invoice that is entered in p/o is then imported into the a/p module with no extra inputting of gst required. Hope this helps.
