How to clear Tax Payable account?

I want to know from where I can clear Tax Payable amount to paid Tax Authority?
tax-payable

I tried via Payment but Account Ledger is not in the list.

Please read the guide Create and use tax codes | Manager

Especially the note concerning the Tax Payable account

  • When you sell something including VAT/GST (defined by the tax codes you apply to line items in invoices or receipts) your accumulate a debt which Manager records in the tax payable account.

  • When you pay your tax office the VAT/GST you owe them, the component of that payment which is VAT/GST has to be applied to the Tax payable account in Manger. Doing so offsets the VAT?GST debt your business has accumulated. The payment you make to the tax authority at that time is not a general business expense, it is for a specific function, which must be recorded in Manager for your books to balance.

@Joe91
If I want to clear tax payable account, then I should create a new account.

I am not a professional accountant that’s why I need some clarification about this.
So, your mean is that it is not necessary to clear Tax payable ledger.
Otherwise, balance sheet will be wrong.

Yes, you have create your own Tax Payable account and edit your tax codes to use it.

Once you do that, you will be able to post the payment to the new Tax Payable account

Hello,

To clear my liabilities, I need to clear my tax payables.
Also, your link is not visible on the forum; can you help me with that?

Thanks and best regards

Manager records how much you owe your tax authority in the liability “Tax payable” account

When you pay the tax authority, that payment is entered in Manger and posted to the “Tax payable” account clearing the liability.

Hi,
Sorry, that’s what I need to know, where can I enter the tax paid details.

On the payment transaction form, just like any other payment.

Customer and supplier are the only entities appearing in payment transactions,
Is there another account for tax payable?
If it possible please share any screenshot or any other reference’s please?

That simply is not true. “Other” is the first option on the list. And your tax is not an account payable. The transaction should be posted to your tax liability account.

Can you please tell me where can I add the tax payable account or find the same ? I am tried to find and can not find the same.
For the accounting still I am beginner , may be you are thinking from based on your knowledge and experience, might this point I am searching may be very simple things I know, but I couldn’t find it, So I Humbly requesting …
