Hi KathyH61 ,
This can be quite challenging. If the BAS was prepared earlier, the report might not match because the date reflects when it was prepared. Additionally, when running the GST Return Summary report under Reporting > BAS Reporting, note that the report is static. It populates values at the time it is generated and won't change unless it is deleted and re-created. By design, it should be generated when lodging a BAS return for a period, as it tracks any changes made in that period. These changes will be included in the adjustments for the next period.
Feel free to post again, we're happy to help!
