HST/GST Report

NewViews automatically calculates HST/GST rebates based on settings that are specified for the Purchase Journal. The HST/GST Report contains the accounts to which input tax credits are posted whenever a purchase transaction is entered, and the account to which HST/GST refunds are posted when refund cheques are deposited.

The Single Period Report view is generally used to display and print this report.

The Setup view is used to set up this report in a new set of books or a set of books that have been converted from NV1 or NV2. The Setup view can also be used to change the report setup if required.
