How to register a tax return?

When you RECEIVE a GST/QST refund, you must process it in The Real Estate Manager's expense module.

ATTENTION All refunds must be made on the last day of the quarter. Once your tax return has been filed, you must not enter any more transactions in the quarter in question, otherwise your tax report will be falsified. You'll have to enter them in the following quarter.

Example: For the period January 1 to March 31, you'll need to enter the expense as of March 31. This will reset the data for the next quarter.
