Navigator > Setup > Goods and Services Tax > Change Tax Basis
The Tax Basis can be set in the Tax Regime Settings form, up until any AR, AP, CB or GST transactions. Once transactions have been entered, the Tax Basis can only be changed using this form.
Tax basis change adjustment transactions are created with Transferred to GL set to True. This is because the timing of the change affects the timing of when tax is due to be filed or paid. It does not affect when it is applied to the GL, which is on an Invoice or Accruals bases.
