Hi,

I am using Quickbooks for my non-GST registered company. Due to non-gst registered, I don't do BAS.

When I categorise for the emplyoee 'payroll clearing' and 'superannuation payable', I am not sure which category I should out for GST. 

Should I select 'GST Free Purchases'? or 'Out of Scope'?

 

(Also, I bought some supplements to display at my clinic, this goes under 'GST Free Purchases'?)

Hi ysong17,

 

Thanks for posting in the Community. 

 

When you match payments made for payroll and used Payroll Clearing and Superannuation Payable, you'll need to select Out of scope tax code. 

 

Transactions with GST-free purchases tax code are reported on BAS whereas transactions with out of scope tax are not. This article will provide you more information on the difference of these tax codes when applied on a transaction.
