As an individual, and not a business, we have the opportunity to enter what we actually spent on sales tax in our annual IRS filing. If one exceeds the sales tax standard for a particular state or the feds sales tax is a deductible item. If one is purchasing a big ticket item during that particular year. Sales tax on a car, large home repair and renovation, purchases and contracts as well as regular daily expenses have sales tax out and it's very hard to keep track of. Keeping a separate spreadsheet and scanning receipts is a pain. How much easier would be to scan a receipt and attach it to the charge in Quicken in the category of sales tax? Then a report could be created on sales tax at the end of the year.

All you need is an Expense Category, "Sales Tax paid" or similar name, marked as taxable category and associated with tax line item Schedule A: Sales Tax paid
