Hi,

I've been pulling my hair out over the last couple of days and would really appreciate if someone can point me in the right direction.

I've recently moved from reporting GST on an Accruals basis (last quarter) to a Cash Basis (this quarter).

I have 2 bills which were entered in the last quarter but paid this quarter. So I need to make an adjustment for this quarter, otherwise the GST from the 2 bills will be double-counted (once at bill-date last quarter, and then again at bill-payment-date this quarter).

I'm trying to find a way to adjust for the additional GST paid this quarter due to the 2 transactions, ie back out this quarter's GST attributable to the 2 bills. Is there some way of doing this in QuickBooks (I'm on QuickBooks Accounting 2008/09)?

My attmepts at a GJ have been fruitless, as the Tax Amount can't be entered directly. I'm only a small business and have spoken with an accountant friend but he was unable to help with the QB side.

Thanks,
Jimbo
