Hi there, 

 

I am moving a company from Sage 50 to Quickbooks Desktop and am trying to enter my Sales Tax as an AP item which has already been filed. I am not sure how to do this without throwing my GST account out of balance? I am wondering which account I post this to and how I would make the entry? 

 

Thank you so much!!

Hi sjrobinson,

 

Congrats on making the move to QuickBooks Desktop. QuickBooks Desktop is a robust program that enables you to get your work done faster. I'll be happy to point you in the right direction so you can get back to doing what you love.

 

Making sure you're recording your transactions properly is an essential step for maintaining clean books. To ensure accuracy in your books, I recommend reaching out to an accounting professional for expert advice on how to record the transactions. If you're not in contact with a professional, don't worry, you can search for one using this link here.

 

I'll leave this question open in the Community so other accountant users can share their advice. Otherwise, feel free to ask other questions, I've got your back.
