Hello kevin93,

 

I'm glad to hear that you've successfully gone through the task of filing sales tax and recording a payment in QuickBooks Online! The next step is making sure the government receives the payment, and I can absolutely go over how you proceed from this point in the program.

 

The sales tax module is fantastic for calculating and recording remittances and payments to be made to the government outside of the QuickBooks software. The key when using this module is in recognizing that it's for recording purposes, meaning that it doesn't generate cheques to print and send off.

 

In light of that, there are a few options to consider. First, you can consider writing a cheque manually outside of QuickBooks. The second option is to create a cheque transaction within the program, enter the amount and information as needed, print it off, and then delete the transaction afterward. Deleting it afterward is essential for ensuring that your numbers aren't doubled in your books since the amount is already recorded through the sales tax module. Here are some articles that can help with the cheque transaction.

I can see how much easier it would be to have the option to generate and print a cheque when recording the sales tax payment in the module, so I recommend submitting feedback about this using the following steps: How do I submit feedback? The ideas shared that way are passed to the product development team, who considers them as they continue to expand upon what QuickBooks Online is capable of.

 

Give me a shout if you have further questions!
