Sales Tax Filing Add-On
You Manage the Strategy, We Handle the Portals.
For many MSPs, sales tax is a recurring administrative bottleneck. Whether you file in a single home state or have expanded into several, the manual task of logging into state portals and matching records is a distraction from your core operations.
What We Handle
When you choose the Sales Tax Add-On, Financials 360 owns the data transfer and payment workflow:
- Data Extraction: We pull the "Sales Tax Owed" figures directly from your QuickBooks records.
- Portal Submission: We log into your designated state tax portals and manually submit the returns.
- Payment Initiation: We schedule the payments through the state portal and confirm they are cleared.
- Record Symmetry: We record the payment in your books immediately, so your "Sales Tax Payable" account reconciles to zero every month.
- Deadline Tracking: We manage the calendar, so you never see a late-filing penalty again.
Why MSPs Choose This
- No More "Portal Fatigue": State websites are notoriously difficult to navigate. We handle the UI, so you don't have to.
- Total Consistency: Your "Books" and your "Filings" will always match because the same team is handling both.
- Operational Continuity: Filing doesn't stop just because your internal admin is on vacation or leaves the firm.
