    Hi ElleHall, 

     

    Welcome to the Community Forum. 

     

    The GST amount shown in the dashboard is based on the running balances of your GST Collected and GST Paid linked accounts. For further details for all the information shown in the dashboard, I recommend reading through the article 'The New Dashboard'.

I have exactly the same issue and cannot see any logic when I know I am up to date with GST payments.

 

Reading the information on New Dashboard does not help.

    Hi AliHug , the moderator's reply indicates that the dashboard displays the running balance of the two GST accounts. If you want the display to reflect current GST only, then when you file a GST/BAS return, you need to transfer out the GST content from those two accounts to a GST liability account, and code the payment to that account. Then the balance remaining is current GST only. 

     

    If you haven't been doing this, then an adjustment can be done at any time, with care.

    Hi AliHug,

     

    I appreciate your effort in checking our help article. The figures in this section reflect the current running balances of your linked GST Collected and GST Paid categories. You can compare these balances with the general ledger report for these categories and see the transactions that make up these amounts. Ensure the report's accounting method matches your GST reporting method and the report date is set to today. For more details, refer to our article on how GST figures appear in the dashboard. Manage linked accounts accordingly.

     

    Feel free to post again anytime you require further assistance.
