About this template

This template has step-by-step team instructions for preparing the GS/HST outside the QBO sales tax module. Some files are very sales receipt-heavy, and the module will never be accurate. For some older files, particularly if they were converted from desktop or if the module has not been used in the past, you may want to keep the GST/HST validation and posting out of the module. Using this filing method, the GST/HST owing/refunding will go to AP, rather than to the GST/HST Suspense account, through the journal entry. There should never be a balance in the Suspense account in these types of filing files. There is email copy in the description area of the Preparing/Validating GST/HST task section if you want to send an email rather than use the client task.
