Re: [GNC] GST Report - not showing tax amounts
Hi Gnucash Users, I'm trying to get a report that shows my last 6 months of GST/HST amounts for both sales and expenses. I've used the GST report - the headings are correct - listing the customer/vendor, base sales amount, tax on sale or purchase BUT only prints out the sales/purchase amounts with no tax amounts??? I'm not sure what options I need to include to show the tax amounts as well on the report. I need this for my GST/HST filing. Maybe there's a better report?? Your assistance would be appreciated. Thanks!

[GNC] Adujsting A/R - currently inegative amounts
Hi Group and Derek I'm transferring from QB to Gnu Cash - I neglected to put in 2 amounts into my opening balance of the A/R account. I entered the payments from these two QB invoices, (which are all included in the opening balances of income and tax) --- but since there were no invoices to associate them with or an opening balance of these two amounts in the A/R, they went in as negative amounts to the A/R. How do I fix/adjust to get the A/R back to zero??? Sorry about my lack of accounting knowledge. Thanks again!!!

Re: [GNC] One more question on treansaction taxes
Thanks ever s much Derek. That was the ticket - I had the tax table done, but each item was just linked to Liabilities. I didn’t drill down far enough for the tax accounts. Thanks!

Yes, that would work. The only downside is that it would not really give you easy access to the list of attendees who have not paid you, only the *number* of people who haven't paid. > ONE other question - I've tried entering a bill, with several > transactions, using the "tax" option and had previously added the > subaccounts - "Tax on Purchases" and "Tax on Sales" in my Liabilities > section as suggested.

Re: [GNC] One more question on treansaction taxes
Hi Derek, OK - Like I've done in QB, one invoice with the project name as the customer and the units represent number of attendees and make partial payments that represent the actual payments coming in with a note in the memo field. ONE other question - I've tried entering a bill, with several transactions, using the "tax" option and had previously added the subaccounts - "Tax on Purchases" and "Tax on Sales" in my Liabilities section as suggested. It did not automatically enter the total tax into the correct sub account??? - just into Liabilities as a negative.

GnuCash does not do that, and I cannot think of any way to use the business features to do that. One thing you COULD do is have different A/R accounts "per project", and then you would invoice each person towards the specific A/R account. But that implies each person is paying to one A/R (project) -- you cannot split a single invoice across multiple A/R accounts. The downside with this approach is that it is VERY easy to post to the wrong account, and fixing that could be a lot of cleanup. Another option is to completely forego the business features of GnuCash and just enter the transactions in manually with useful descriptions for you to filter on later. You're right, though -- GnuCash does not have good "Project tracking". When I wrote the business features nearly 20 years ago it just wasn't something that I ever needed, so I didn't build it in. Honestly, I wrote it for my (one-man) consulting firm.

[GNC] One Job - Many Customers
Hi User Group, I've just joined and set up my chart of accounts and am ready to process jobs and customers etc. Currently you can have one customer to many jobs, But I want one job to many customers. My question: I run many different classes/programs/courses, each with several students/customers attending. How do I set up the one "program"/job and then invoice or associate all the customers to that "program/job"? When I used quick books - I had one invoice to represent the program associated to an income account, and just typed the names in a description field of the payees/attendees. The individual payments reduced the invoice, and I used the memo field to list who made the payment. I want to get away from this as each person is only listed in the memo field and I can't easily reconcile with the bank by name. Thanks so much for your help!
