**Training Guide:** Pulling Sales Tax Reports from QuickBooks

**Objective:** This guide aims to instruct users on how to extract sales tax reports from QuickBooks.

**Duration:** The process takes approximately 3 minutes.

**Procedure:**

- **Accessing Sales Tax Reports**:
  
    - Start on your QuickBooks dashboard.
    - Navigate to the left sidebar and select 'Taxes.'
    - Click on 'Sales Tax'.
- **Understanding Sales Tax Agencies:** 
  
    - The screen displays sales tax agencies for which taxes have been collected, such as California and North Carolina.
- **Reviewing Tax Periods:** 
  
    - Each state shows a specific tax period.
    - For example, California might be set as a monthly payer (January 1st to January 31st), while North Carolina could be quarterly (January 1st to March 31st).
- **Selecting the Relevant Period:** 
  
    - Scroll to find the desired period for the report, such as the previous year, if the current period lacks data.
- **Accessing Detailed Reports:** 
  
    - Choose a specific month.
    - Click 'View Tax Return' and then 'View Liability Report' for detailed tax collection information by county.
- **Recording and Confirming Tax Payments:** 
  
    - *For C2 Accounting county monthly or quarterly clients:*
      
          - Send confirmation of tax filing to C2 Accounting for proper recording in QuickBooks.
    - *For non-recurring clients:*
      
          - Record the payment independently in QuickBooks.
          - Click 'Record Payment' under 'Review Tax Return' to document the payment.
- **Understanding Payment Discrepancies:** 
  
    - Be aware that the amount due in QuickBooks may differ from the actual amount due to rounding differences or state credits.
