The Sales Tax Report by Period displays the Sales Tax information according to the Accounting Period, if your Accounting Period is from the 1st of the month to the last day of the month. If you roll your Accounts Receivable any other time than the last day of the month, it is recommended that you use the "Sales Tax Report by Invoice Date" (6.10.7).
Use this report to prepare your Sales Tax. Each Tax Code is listed for each Location showing Total Sales, Non-Taxable Sales, Taxable Sales, and Total Tax Collected.
