My NS client is an airline.

When a ticket is sold, the customer pays the fare as well as a list of tickettaxes. The fare is income for us. The taxes however we have to pay to the appropriate organization (e.g. airports).

The fare is booked to an account of type “deferred revenue”

The taxes are booked to accounts of type “other liability”

When we run a sales or profit report for a certain period, the total fares are displayed per customer.

However, we also want to create an overview of the taxes collected per customer.

Any ideas on how to do this?

thanks

Esmeralda

p.s.: we have one other-charge item called “fare” with as income account an account of type deferred revenue. We have various other-charge items called “ticket tax x”, “ticket tax y”, etc. with income account an account of type other liability.

RE: how to report other liabilities

I’m guessing the taxes are not showing up on your profitability report because they are booked straight to other liabilities. You might try a custom search or a transaction detail report.

RE: how to report other liabilities

Miguel,

thanks for the suggestion.

I ended up doing:

reports – new report – transactions – matrix style

i display entity name vs account

then customized as follows:

filter: transaction type = invoice

now I see both my fares (revenue) and my various taxes (liabilities).

Only question remaining is: where can i find this report once it is saved?

I canot find it under ‘saved reports’.

Any ideas? anyone?

The only thing I can think of is to try the “From-To” box in the lower left corner of the page if you have more than a page full of reports.
