Adjusting sales tax
To adjust your sales tax before you pay it:
1 Choose Vendors > Pay Sales Tax.
Take a look at the amount of sales tax you owe. Do you need to adjust it—say if your tax authority
has given you a discount for on-time payments?
2 Click Adjust.
3 Fill out the Sales Tax Adjustment info. Here's what's required:
! Set a date for this adjustment.
! Choose the Sales Tax Vendor you're paying. (Probably your local or state sales tax
authority.)
! Choose the Adjustment Account. (QuickBooks will record this adjustment here.)
! Choose whether this is an Increase or a Decrease, and enter the amount of the adjustment
you're making.
4 Click OK.
QuickBooks records this adjustment and closes the Sales Tax Adjustment window. Now you're ready to pay your
sales tax.
