Accounting Reports: The SST Sales Report taxable amount is reporting double the transacted amount

SST report with double taxable amount

The system has created the tax code ST10 and other SST tax codes twice when upgrading from the old version Sage UBS 9.9.5.x to the current version. This issue is caused by duplicate tax codes being active simultaneously, such as two entries for the same tax code (e.g., two ST05 or two ST10 codes).

To resolve the double amount and tax code, follow the steps below:

  1. Close UBS.

  2. Go to the location of the data. For example: C:\UBSACC2015\DATA\ Effected Company

  3. Look for the filenames gsttax.dbf and gsttax.cdx and delete them.

  4. Open UBS, run file organization, and upgrade data files

  5. Open the relevant report, and the taxable amount in the SST reports will now be corrected.

  6. Alternatively, review the list of tax codes in your system and identify any duplicates. Mark the extra duplicate tax code(s) as "Obsolete" to ensure only one tax code remains active. This will prevent doubled totals in the report.
