Deposit Form FGADCSR and the QST rate change

Published: 22 December 2011

This communication is directed to those who process taxable sales using Banner Deposit Form FGADCSR.

The QST rate is increasing from 8.5% to 9.5% effective January 1, 2012.聽 Banner is now updated to reflect this new rate.聽 When processing sales during the transition period, it is important to make a conscious decision about which tax rate should apply.聽 As a general rule of thumb:

  • If the deposit relates to a sale with an invoice dated prior to January 1st, 2012 the QST rate is 8.5%
  • If the deposit relates to a sale with an invoice dated January 1st, 2012 and after, the QST rate is 9.5%.

To help you control which rate should apply when processing taxable revenue, we have modified the Banner Deposit Form FGADCSR to include a new field entitled 鈥淪ales Tax Effective Date鈥 in the header section.聽 So regardless of the Transaction Date used, if you enter a December date in the new field (and continue to use the usual Tax Group code), the QST will be calculated at 8.5%.聽 If you enter a date of January 1st or later, the QST will be calculated at 9.5%.聽 The 鈥淪ales Tax Effective Date鈥 cannot be greater than the 鈥淭ransaction Date.鈥

For your convenience, the completion screen (where 鈥淐omplete鈥 or 鈥淚n Process鈥 is selected) will also include the tax rates in effective for the document.聽 This will allow for a final verification prior to submission.
