Question

Did Square import change how it handles sales tax in February?

I have been using the Square app for years to import transactions.

As of February 1st, the imported transactions all come into QB *without* the sales tax checkbox checked, and the associated sales receipt for the day has a new line item called Sales Tax Item.

The byproduct of this is that when I view the Sales Tax report for February, QB thinks my taxable sales are *way lower* than what they actually were.

 

Is this a settings thing? A change on Square's end? A problem with the Square import app? Has anyone else noticed a change in how their Square sales are imported into QB?

Aaand, I remove the old Synd with Square app to try to re-add it to fix the problem, and the old app is no longer available. And the new one is in beta mode so it is unavailable to me. Good job, Intuit.
