Question

When entering a bill, sometimes the GST amount is not a strict 10%. How do I override the tax rate and put in a specific figure?

Hi leighton2,

 

Thanks for posting in the Community! If you are needing to record another amount for GST that is not 10% you can set the transaction to Exclusive of Tax and manually change the amount to what you need. Here's how:

 

  1. Open a bill.
  2. On Amounts are, select Exclusive of Tax.
  3. Enter bill details.
  4. After you select a GST rate on a transaction, you'll see a small box where you can enter a GST amount. 
  5. Select Save.
