Why not set it up as a sales tax item? You would have to use a description that is not sales tax, and you would probably need to modify some of your documents, like invoices, but it can be done. We do it for a particular charge/credit we make, and it works for us. You can assign a different GL to the different tax code, and it will not appear in the same place as the sales tax items. Admittedly, it is a bit of a kludge, but Epicor makes us do odd things to get the results we need.

How do you apply a miscellaneous charge to a sales order that is a percentage?
All the Misc Charges are flat, this should work like a sales tax, though it is not a tax in the sense that we have to report it differently than simple freight charges, nor do we want it on the G/L as a tax.
It's really a surcharge, expressed as a percentage, that's meant to cover extra handling for certain orders.
We could calculate it manually and enter it as Header Misc Charge, but was hoping there was a way to apply the percentage.

Thank you,
