Question

How do I record a quarterly HST payment towards a yearly filing? If I enter a payment under taxes, it won't let me print a cheque.

I don't file HST until the end of the year but need to pay quarterly. Recording a payment won't print a cheque, and creating a cheque doesn't apply it to the sales taxes.

Hi krista-johnlefur,

 

Welcome to Community!  QuickBooks Online Sales Tax feature, enables you to prepare, file and record your payments.  It's important that you're able to create the payment method and submit it on time.  I'd be happy to help!

 

After recording your sales tax payment, you'll want to create the check.  First, you'll need to set up the sales tax agency as a supplier.  Here's how:

 

1. Open Expenses from the left menu and select Suppliers

2. Click on New Supplier

3. Complete the fields in the Supplier Information window

4. Hit Save.

 

Follow these steps to create the cheque;

 

1. Click on +New from the left menu and select Cheque

2. Enter the sales tax agency in the Payee field

3. Complete the required fields, then select Print/Preview

4. When finished, hit Save and Close

 

Please feel free to reach back out if you have other questions.  We'd be glad to assist!
