GST Invoiced Report Overview
Report Output
The report prints detailed information from the tax records for a selected range of tax period dates. The records are grouped and subtotaled by the Apply GST code of "N," "Y," and "Z." A negative value identifies credit transactions.
This history information does not include postings you performed manually from the G/L journal to the GST G/L accounts. If you generated GST account distributions from sales/parts orders before posting them in A/R, then adjusted the distributions manually, the history information does not include the adjustments. Therefore, the report does not reflect these secondary changes to account balances.
Tax Records
In sales/parts orders, the tax records are created when each invoice is printed and posted. These records are not altered, regardless of changes to the transaction in A/R or G/L.
If you enter invoices, credit memos, or debit memos directly in A/R (not from sales/parts orders), the tax records are created based on the values in the special tax fields in the G/L distributions. When you post the manual transactions, the tax records are created.
Verifying the Report
Compare the contents of the report to the GST account balances for the period reported from the G/L. If you find discrepancies, first verify that A/R does not contain unposted invoices/credit memos from sales/parts orders.
Then, ensure the A/R Distribution journal has been posted to the ledger. You may have additional discrepancies if you adjusted the GST account balances manually with journal entries, or adjusted the A/R Invoice G/L GST Account Distribution records manually. Only these discrepancies are acceptable.
