GST Report by Area

You use the GST Report by Area program to print a tax report reflecting the GST that is payable on all items sold since this report was last run.

The report is produced according to the geographic area in which the invoices were captured.

[Note]

  • This report only applies if your nationality code is defined as CAN (System Setup) and the Canadian GST required option is selected (Tax Options - General tab).

  • Irrespective of the number of months for which you are retaining GST records (Sales Analysis Setup -History tab), GST records can only be purged by the Sales Analysis Update program if the GST records have been printed. It is therefore imperative that the GST Report by Area is printed on a regular basis (e.g. monthly).

  • The GST Report by Area can only be printed for the current and previous years.
