Question

Sales Tax Return missing Sales Revenue

We recently started using Lightspeed POS system and we are mapping all of our sales data to QBO. I just went to prepare our GST return and it is showing zero sales revenue. I mapped our Lightspeed sales revenue to matching income categories in QBO and the income shows up on profit/loss reports, but not in the sales tax return. The taxes we collected on sales are also missing from the return, although they show up in the sales tax payable accounts. All the QBO GST return shows is our input tax credits. Do sales need to go through the "Products and Services" feature in QBO in order to be tracked as sales for tax returns? If so, I don't think I can map our sales data directly from our POS, which means either daily manual entries, or I have to do the monthly sales tax returns manually. I'm hoping there is a better solution, can anyone help me?
