There will be times when invoices are missing for the period the GST/HST has already been remitted. You can still post the missing invoices using invoice date. The GST/HST from those missing invoices will be picked up to be remitted in the next due period. I'm going to assume you are going by the balance sheet amount and not by the Tax Report as that will not show the correct amount to remit. If I am not mistaken, any general journal entries that are made with the GL for GST/HST included will not show up in the Tax Report.

When I do the GST/HST remittances I print the Balance Sheet as of period ending date, the Income Stmt covering the filing period for the revenue amount, and I also print both the GST/HST Charged on Sale and Paid on Purchases. These are my backup documents for the GST/HST Remittance Report.

I'm just going to clarify the following

I would have described this as "any general journal entries that are made with the General Journal that affect the GST/HST general ledger accounts will not show up in the Tax Report unless you use the Sales Taxes button to assign a tax code."

Nice to see you back Heather!

Hi Richard - nice to see you too!
