Manual entries to account for GST/HST payable (both DR and CR) amounts ONLY show up in the running balance for GST/HST Payable Account, NOT for HST report. Why?

Hello @sherrilrflint ,

They won't show up if you do not specify the tax line in the manual JE that you have posted.  It isn't enough to just enter the GST/HST payable account.  You must tab over to the Sales Tax field and enter the correct code.  For example, it can't distinguish whether this transaction is for a sale or a purchase.  The tax code will distinguish that.  See below:

This is just an example and maybe not a very good gone.  But it shows how you have to direct which Line of the report your GST/HST entry should go to.  Keep in mind, that you could have a GST/HST Payable CR amount that is also a Line 106 - if it is a credit or a reversal of a bill or expense.  Same with the Line 103 - if you are recording a line to account for a credit you gave to a customer, then it would be a DR and still go to Line 103.

Hope this helps.  Good luck!
