The Payment Detail Report currently puts Rent and Tax into the same bucket. I would like to see these separated, please!!

I use this report to reconcile to my QB P&L. Taxes are typically not included on P&L sheets, so it makes reconciliation difficult. 

Further, since I have some channels that do collect tax and others that don't collect tax, trying to back out these figures to manually reconcile the reports is cumbersome and time-consuming. 

Simply adding a Tax column would solve this issue. Seems like it would be a quick, easy thing to add to the code?

Thanks!

I don't think this would be quick and easy, and maybe not even possible.  How would partial payments be accounted for?  Should the tax be paid first?  Paid last?  Pro-rated on a percentage basis? Jurisdictions handle this differently, considering the tax to be payable in full at booking time, or on arrival time, or pro-rated as payments are made - and of course, you may be taxed by multiple jurisdictions with different rules.
