It helped a lot :]

Can someone please help me?  I want to email pay slips but when I try, I get a message that says: 'Could not print to printer. Check your printer selection. Printing may have been cancelled from another program'. I don't want to print - I want to email. As soon as I press 'OK' I get another message that says Quickbooks has encountered an error and must shut down.  I can see the little window which says 'Going Online' - it appears behind the "Could not print to printer.....' message.  So frustrating!!  I have been through the 'Help' section in my manual and I have done everything that it says to do but still no luck. I could go back to just printing the pay slips and giving them to our employees, but I would really like to email them.  Thanks to anyone who might be able to help.

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

Best website, i’m keen on it!

I have set up a new company on quickbooks premier edition 2011/2012.  I input an invoice into the system and then allocated a payment to it through Receive payments.
However when I went to reconcile the bank statement it had the deposit in the right spot but there was also a corresponding entry in the cheques and payments column (LHS) for the amount of the invoice less the GSt (10%) component.
I am not sure why this is happening - it is happening to every invoice and subsequent payment I enter into the system. Please help this is doing my head in

Over the weekend I had to reformat my c drive so I naturally went into Quickbooks and made a backup file of my current company file to both a spare hard drive and also to a flashdrive. Once I had windows 7 setup again I reinstalled Quickbooks 2011/2012, activated then reinstalled the 2011/12 tax tables. I then attempted to open my backup file but get a message

"Quickbooks cannot openm this data file becuase it was create din a different edition. You can only only open quickbooks accounting files within this ediiton."

Any advice on what can be wrong here as Im starting to sweat thinking I may have lost my latest file.

Thanks

Why can't I add Custom Fields to a Payslip? I've added a custom field for employees but this field doesn't appear in the Header Tab for a payslip. Is this not possible to do?

Thanks

I would suspect it should work upwards and not downwards.  The system can't identify which sub item the parent transaction goes to.  Rather you need to put an item in the sub item, and then you would see that roll up into the parent item....I just don't think it works the other way.

If you have a look at an employee, under the Employment Info tab, there is an Emp. No field already avaliable to use.

We run it on XP with no problems, via a server. 

Do you put your computer into sleep mode?  I find Quickbooks would discounet everytime my computer went into sleep mode, so I had to change this setting.
