Hi

Thanks for the reply. But this doesnt solve my problem. Let me give you an example of the problem I'm facing. Say there is a GST due for the month of August to the tune of 95000. I do a part payment say in September for 60000 and the balance 35000 in October. I record this payment of 60000 in September and 35000 in October. No problem till now. But when I look at the Taxes I realize it doesn't consider the 35000 for August while it adjusts 35000 for October dues. Is there a way to ensure that the 35000 gets adjusted only against the August dues and not the October dues?

Will look forward to your reply

Let me get you back on track, @kmranjith.

I have some information on how to manage your GST in QuickBooks.

First, let's check the date of transactions associated with the 35,000 tax amount. It might be the date was set for October. Thus, QuickBooks adjusts the GST payments to the said month and not August.

Then, let's ensure to use the correct date when recording your GST payments. Here's how:

Go to the Taxes menu.
Select the Payment history tab.
Review the Tax Period column.

If you need to make some changes, you can delete and then recreate the said payment. To do that, you can follow the steps given by my peer above.

If you're still having the same issue, I recommend getting in touch with our support team. They have the tools to check your account securely and perform a viewing session if needed.

For the old "Help" menu interface:

Click the Help (?) icon at the top.
Choose the Contact Us button.
Type your issue or question on the What can we help you with box: "Correct GST payments adjustment due dates."
Proceed with the Let's talk button.
Select the Start messaging option.

For the new Help menu:

Click the Help (?) icon at the top.
Type Talk to a human.
Enter your issue or question on the What can we help you with box: "Correct GST payments adjustment due dates."
Choose I still need a human.
Select the Start messaging option.

To view and make sure your GST records are accurate, you can run some reports in QuickBooks Online. To do that, go to the View reports drop-down, and then select the desired report from there.

I'm always around to help if you have additional questions about managing your GST payments in QuickBooks. Have a good one.
