Thanks for the clarification, @Diana_SB.
I'll help you every step of the way on how to adjust the sales tax item in QuickBooks Desktop. Thus, your transactions and reports are accurate at all times.
If you want to increase the sales tax item, I'd recommend creating Sales Receipts. Let me show you how:
- Go to the Customers menu and choose Enter Sales Receipts.
- Leave the Customer field empty and select 0% in the Tax drop-down arrow. If you don't have one, click Add New.
- Pick the specific sales item in the first column and enter the adjustment amount.
- Hit OK when you receive the message "Changing the amount of a tax line item may cause your sales tax reports to be incorrect."
- Click Save & Close.
- Repeat the steps for other items you want to adjust.
However, if you want to decrease, I'd suggest creating a Credit Memo. For the complete steps, see this article and directly go Negative Adjustment: Process sales tax adjustment.
