Hi. We are trying to start using the GST report processing feature. We have always entered it manually into our proper accounts. When we go to process the GST Return it is pulling transactions from multiple previous years and adding it to the return. How can we clear this without effecting our account balances? Thank You!

    Hi Diana,
    Try doing a return dated the day before the day you want to start as your new reporting period. That should catch all those old items and if everything was posted correctly then it should generate a zero dollar return for you to record. If it generates a return with a balance, record it anyway to clear those old items in the system and then you can review the "dummy" return with your accountant to decide on the correct adjusting entry required at year-end.
