A retail sales tax that works differently again
Manitoba charges a 7 percent retail sales tax alongside the 5 percent federal GST. Like BC, it is not harmonized and not broadly recoverable, so RST paid on inputs usually lands as a cost. Unlike BC, Manitoba has signalled rate changes more than once in recent years, which makes keeping the coding current worth doing deliberately.
Winnipeg also carries a heavy transport and distribution base. HBT already works with trucking and owner operators in Alberta, and the records that sector needs, cost per unit, fuel, interprovincial GST, travel the same way regardless of which prairie province the yard is in.

Common question
What sales taxes does a Winnipeg business charge?
Generally 5 percent federal GST plus 7 percent Manitoba retail sales tax, filed separately. RST is not harmonized with GST and does not carry the same broad input tax credit mechanism, so RST paid on inputs is usually a cost rather than a recoverable amount. The two need to be coded separately in the books.
