1. Go to Reports (Take me there).
2. In the Find report by name field, search for "GST Liability Report". Then, select the report.
3. Select the Report period ▼ dropdown. Select the correct date range depending on how often you file your tax.
4. Select the VAT Agency ▼ dropdown. Then, select All or just one VAT agency.
5. Select Run report.
6. Look at the Tax Amount column. Here, you can view the total tax amounts you collected from your customers. The amounts would include federal, regional, and local tax rates (such as city, county, and/or province).
