Pay Sales Tax in QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions



Verify the Taxes Due:
  • Vendors
  • Sales Tax
  • Sales Tax Liability

Make sure that the dates of liability are LAST MONTH - note the amounts due to each agency and the amounts due:



Return to Vendors, Sales Tax, then select Pay Sales Tax:



When the window opens, pay one agency at a time…first do the one that exact (typically NV Dept of Taxation – City of East Bayshore in this example). Be sure to set the correct bank account from which to deduct the monies, then set the date of the withdrawal and most importantly, set the tax liability date – should be last month under show sales tax due through date. Finally determine if you want QB to assign a check number or if you prefer to do so at a later time, select “to be printed":





Now return to Vendor, Sales Tax, Pay Tax window to pay the taxes that require rounding:
  • Select all taxes (they both go to the same tax agency)
  •  Select the ADJUST button
  •  In this example, the payment can be rounded up or down…we will round up to 1637.00





Follow the example above:

  • Verify that the adjustment affects the tax period you wish to adjust…Nov 2019 in this
  • example.
  • Make sure the vendor agrees to the agency in your Tax window.
  • Select the offset account, such as Other Income or Other Expense depending upon Increase/Decrease
  • Increase or decrease the tax payable – in this example increase by 37 cents
  • Make a memo if you like…such as rounding to pay even dollar to CABOE
  • Select OK to return to the Sales Tax Payment Window





Select OK to continue after adjustment



Verify that the checking account, date of check, date of liability, and starting check number or
“to be printed” are still as they should be.
Now Select “Pay All Tax Button”


Go to the check register to verify that your checks have been properly recorded and are
waiting as “To Print” for you to either enter a check date or eft note.





When you make your payments online, change the To Print memo to the actual notation such
as EFT, DD, Online and verify that 2 checks are in the register each to the proper agency

How to "Un" Apply Credits In QuickBooks

Image
Got a QuickBooks Mess? Call The QuickBooks Gal! Welcome to the QuickBooks Minute. I’m Jayne Miller, the QuickBooks Gal Recently, one of our Reno QuickBooks customers asked about "unapplying" credits in QuickBooks. While there are nicely labeled apply credits buttons, there are none marked unapply. This is the case for both customers (invoicing) and vendors (paying bills). So here is how it is done: For customers, it is a fairly easy process. Go to the invoice to which the credit was applied. Then click on the "Apply Credits" button. In the lower half of the new window that pops up is a list of Previously Applied Credits. Simply find the one, or ones you wish to unapply and click on the check mark next to it to make the check mark disappear. The credit will no longer be applied or tied to that invoice. For Vendors, i.e. bill payments, it is not as clean and simple. The only way to unapply a credit in such a case is to Delete the credit. You can then

QuickBooks Password Protection

QuickBooks now requires your employees to enter a password to view their pay stubs when you e-mail them. QuickBooks generates the passwords automatically; each password consists of the first four letters of the employee's last name followed by the last four digits of their Social Security number. Examples Name:                            SSN:                         Pay Stub Password: Ben Narramore              855-56-4545             narr4545 Deb D'Spain                  782-34-3419             dspa3419 Jimmy Wu                     903-88-7465             wu7465 Note that all characters must be entered in lowercase and punctuation characters are not included in the password. When a last name has fewer than four characters, the whole last name is used (like in wu above) but no additional characters are added. You will need to inform each employee of this new password requirement
