Question

Does QBSE include income from non-invoiced jobs in the totals for my tax return?

I am a self-employed cleaner and I use QBSE for my invoicing. However I also do pet sitting through a national company as an independent contractor. No invoices are issued by me as the company takes care of that. I use the Transactions feature to declare the pet sitting payments as business income. My question is, do the totals included in the QBSE Profit and Loss statement include the income I have earned from the pet sitting, or do they only include income earned through invoicing?

Yes, Allyson, the totals in your QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE) Profit and Loss statement will include the income you have earned from pet-sitting.

 

QBSE is designed to track all income and expenses for a sole trader, not just those that come from invoicing.

 

As long as you have properly categorized those transactions as Business Income within the Transactions feature, this ensures that your financial reports and tax summaries are accurate and reflect all of your business earnings.
