Taxes

Under the taxes option, my sales tax is recognizing everything on a cash basis, I am not sure how that happened, how can I change it to recognize accrual basis?

I have quite a few expenses/receipts where some (not all) of the items on the receipt are tax exempt.  The way Quickbooks online is working, is it will automatically calculate the GST and/or PST (at the set percentage) on the total amount of the expense/receipt.  I need to be able to amend these incorrect tax amounts and have tried overriding the amount that is automatically entered by QBO, but it then also alters the total, to adjust it so that the tax amount is the correct percentage again.  Is there any easy way to change these tax amounts on individual expenses?  I am looking to move to QBO from another product, however if there is no simple way of changing these amounts, it may have to be a dealbreaker for me!  Any help would be much appreciated, as I have searched and searched online and still not found an answer.  Thanks!

 A transaction of $6.65 gross was calculated at $0.32 GST and it should have been $0.29

Gst number

My GST/HST reports are not showing installments I've made in line 110 on the report. How can I have the report use the account I created to track GST installments?Thanks. 

This makes the percentage off by a few cents and never matches the contract.

Hi there,The CRA has rules for small business tax deductions. For example, meals & entertainment can only claim 50% of the expenseVehicle expenses can only be used for the business portion of vehicle use, fuel. Let's say I spend $100 on a business meal and pay with my business credit card. How do I reconcile the account when I can only enter $50 (50% by CRA rules) as a business expense? Also, I pay HST quarterly so how can I ensure the proper ITC is being recorded based on the 50% of the meal expense? Let's say I have a receipt for $80 in auto fuel. I can't claim 100% of the auto fuel as an expense because I do some personal driving. But I still need to reconcile the bank account showing the $80. How do I reconcile the account while only recording, say, 30% of that $80 fuel as a business expense and appropriate HST paid on that purchase? I hope that makes sense.Thanks for help.   

Example: I posted a JE in QBO at 8:00 AM EST and the same is showing in transaction history but when the journal is exported along with JE time details, time changes to PST and show as 5:00 AM PST as posting time.

With our business, taxes are not always applied to all lines on an invoice. When I enter the invoice, I see there is an 'edit' button beside the tax amount. This button for me is greyed out. Where do I change that?  I've tried entering the lines on the invoice separately, and leaving off the tax, but I always get the pop up that the invoice isn't in balance.  I'm pretty new to QuickBooks.  Is there a way that I can set my program so I always just put in the tax that I see on the Invoice???  I'm relatively new to QuickBooks Help please.  

When I initiate GST/HST sales tax filing, the url that opens is an old CRA website that was discontinued in 2017.  Is there somewhere in QuickBooks where I can edit the url to go to the correct website which is: https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/e-services-business/gst-hst-internet-file-transfer.html  Thank you.

I'm trying to upload journal entries to replace a manual sales receipt process at the moment.  My journal entry includes a GST Payable line.  I see these figures in my chart of accounts, but am not seeing it being picked up when I go to the Taxes section and prepare to file.  What am I missing to fix this?

In "Sales Tax", the Federal tax current year (Jun1/23 to May31/24) is displaying, but the previous year (Jun1/22 to May31/23) cannot be found. I've tried deleting cache, private browser, different browser, different computer but nothing has helped. Any suggestions?

In error, I entered a bill in two different ways and need to decide best way to fix. Entry #1 - done in previous quarter so GST input was processed with my last remittance.  I entered it as a bill, and also entered that the bill was paid from my chequing account via debit.   Entry #2 - done in current quarter so I am hoping I can still fix the situation on my next GST remittance since this is also my year end.  I entered it as a cc charge because I paid it online and charged it to my business cc.  I paid my cc balance including this bill.   Entry #2 was what actually happened, so I am contemplating either voiding or deleting my Entry #1, including the bill payment.  I do not know what it will do or not do to my "pay sales tax" process. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Hi, I'm using QBDT SDK to create and modify bills. I know that we can specify the sales tax code for a bill but is there a way to set the amount? In QBDT, the amount gets automatically calculated based on the particular tax percentage but it is possible to overwrite it manually to any value (see the screenshot - the tax percentage is 7% but I overwrote the value to be 10). Is possible to do the same via SDK?

our taxes are 15% but the tax collected are only 14.1% on the summery report

We received an income tax refund and would like to know what are the appropriate steps to record the amount.
