Reporting on tax period amounts by period

If your company reports taxes by invoice or payment date, then there is a difference between when the invoice amounts post to these applications:

  • Global Ledger
  • Tax

For example, if you create an invoice one month but do not post it to the Global Ledger until the next month, then this situation can occur.

By running the Tax Reconciliation Report, you can list all invoices that were applied to a specific tax period. The report subtotals by general ledger period or tax code.

Before running this report, you must have set up the Tax entity and calendar.

Note: When invoice amounts are displayed and an invoice amount has already been shown on a different line, an asterisk is displayed next to the amount. This indicates that this total is being repeated.
