AR: Sales Tax Report

Overview

The Sales Tax Report is used to track taxable and non-taxable purchases for a specific date range. Use this report when filing sales tax forms for the state, county, and city.

You can group by Customer & Invoice or Government Type & Description.

If you Group by Customer & Invoice, you can sort by Customer Name or Number.

If you Group by Government Type & Description, you can sort by Government Type or Government Hierarchy. When you sort by Government Type, the report lists all State information first, then County, City, and Local tax information.

When you sort by Government Hierarchy, this looks at jurisdictions based on parent and groups them together for reporting purposes. For the State of Nebraska (who is the "parent" of other jurisdictions, under Govt Type of State: Nebraska, all counties, then Cities, and Locals that have Nebraska as the Parent, are grouped together; followed by the next Jurisdiction and grouping.

Jurisdictions that have no "Parent" are listed first.

The details report contains all sales tax information down to the invoice level. Invoices that were entered through Customer Balances display in the Non Taxable column.
The recaps only report contains taxable, non-taxable, revenue total, tax total and invoice total by tax jurisdictions.

You can filter, group, and print by Tiers, allowing for total customization of the report. To make filtering easier, for any Tier, you can include All, Pick/Create or Exclude parameters. Using Tier Templates to set up and save report templates makes it easy to generate a specific report each time you need it, without having to recreate the criteria. See Using Tier Templates for more information.
