I have been doing some googling and it seems everybody has a different way of doing their GST remittance but I have been advised against doing it through Sage online filing.
My question is which report should I use to make it accurate?
I was using the general ledger and that report gives me a refund this quarter, however if I check the amounts on the balance sheet the Sales GST and GST POP are substansially different. I also checked the tax report and it is giving me the same numbers as the G/L, however just to make things confusing I did a dummy GST file through sage to see which numbers it would give me and it uses the balance sheet numbers.
So to summarize:
The balance sheet numbers are the same as the Sage GST efile numbers which result in a balance owing.
The G/L and tax report numbers are the same which results in a refund.
There is about an $8000 difference between the two so I want to know the most accurate way to figure out which numbers to use in my GST remittance.
