Calculate and Post Tax Settlement report gives incorrect data due to issue from December update

Posted on by 106

Has any one noticed this issue when running the Calculate and Post Tax Settlement report; the issue is total taxes payable is wrong and don't match the Sales tax collected report for the same reporting period.
Looking into the issue further, I can see that the Tax Entry table 254 has a new column "Tax Date" which I can see in version 21.3 I'm not sure when this column was added, but I don't see it on version 20.5

 version 21.3 has Tax Date column

Version 20.5  don't have Tax Date column

The Tax Date column seems to mirror the Posting Date value. around Dec 12th 2022, I see that this column is blank for any posted Sales and Purchase Invoices. However if you post entries from the General Journal the column is populated correctly.

When you run the Sales Tax Collected report, the tax Date is not used and you get the expected result for the period you are reporting for. When you run the Calculate and Post Tax Settlement report the process seems to be using the Tax Date and you will only get the transactions which have a values in that column. As a result of this if you Post the Tax settlement, the amount is incorrect.

I have a support ticket open for this, I'll post an update when I have a solution.

    Great work, thank you for sharing final outcome!. Not sure why these tax dates were empty. If this happening again, maybe raise it to Microsoft (assuming issue happens in standard as well).

    I was having the same issue, but I was able to find a workaround thanks to your post.

    When I navigated to the Tax Entries page, I clicked on "Edit in Excel." When the entries opened in Excel, the Tax Date was blank for entries made in the last few weeks. I was able to copy the values from the Posting Date field into the Tax Date field and Publish back to BC.

    After I did this, my settlement report was showing the correct balance.
