How can I specify tax treatment when creating an expense in QuickBooks Online?

I am working on a Zap that creates an expense in QuickBooks Online corresponding to each ShipStation shipment that is created.

However, there doesn't seem to be a way to specify whether the expense amounts passed to QuickBooks Online are exclusive or inclusive of sales taxes or out of scope of taxes. This is something that is required when creating an expense manually in QuickBooks Online in order to ensure the correct tax treatment. So should it not be part of a Zap action item that creates an expense in QuickBooks Online?

Thanks.
