Tax Season

Our expertise lies in helping you extract information from Time To Pet, which can be a crucial step in your tax preparation process. However, it's important to note that the specific data you require will depend on your business's structure and accounting method, as well as the local laws and regulations your company is subject to. We want to clarify that while we can provide you with data-related assistance, we are not qualified to offer tax or accounting advice. Managing your business and addressing tax-related matters can be complex, whether you're new to filing taxes for your business or have been doing it for years.

Credit Card Processing Fees

Depending on which payment processor you’re integrated with, you can find the credit card processing fees for last year as follows.

For Customers Using WePay

There are two places to generate a report on payment processing fees. 

One is in Invoicing > WePay > Withdrawals tab, just above the graph. This report is based on when the withdrawals were initiated to send to your bank account. 

The other report is on the same page but in the Payments tab. This report is based on the date of the payment.

For Customers Using Time To Pet Payments powered by Stripe:  

There are two places to generate a report on payment processing fees.

• One is in Invoicing > Payments > Payouts tab, just above the graph. This report is based on when the payouts were initiated to be sent to your bank account.
• The other report is on the same page but in the Payments tab. This report is based on the date of the payment.

Sales Tax

If your company collects Sales Tax, we offer a couple of different reports with information on how much tax was added to invoices and what was actually collected. You should review each report and determine which one works best for your company regarding accounting methods and the local laws and regulations your company is subject to. 

Sales Report

To determine how much sales tax was added to invoices, you can generate a Sales report in Reporting > Financial > Sales. When generating a Sales report, you must choose whether to filter the report by invoice date or due date, and you have the option to choose only paid invoices or all invoices (unpaid and paid). This report will not consider the dates of payments on the included invoices nor the dates of line items or events within the invoices.

Applied Payments Report

The Payments - Applied report lists all payments made within a specified date range that are currently applied to an invoice. The total amount of applied payments, taxes, and tips your company has collected through applied payments can be found along the top of the report. If your company collects sales tax, this report also includes a strip of data at the bottom of the screen that calculates how much of the listed payments are made up of taxes. This report is located in Reporting > Financial > Payments. Here is a help doc that gives a breakdown of how to interpret this report: Analyzing Financial Data Discrepancies In Time To Pet - Payment Reports

Pay Stub/User Invoice Reports

To see how much money was included on pay stubs or user invoices, follow these steps:

1. From the main Dashboard, go to Staff (or Users) > Pay Center
2. Enter the tax period date range, then click the “Refresh” button
3. Click “Download” and then “Download Summary”

A .csv file will be downloaded to your device with columns that break down the total paid, total minus tips, and total tips for each pay stub. You can then use your spreadsheet software to calculate the totals in each column.

Profit and Loss Statements (P&L) and Net Revenue

While it’s possible to generate pay stubs for staff in Time To Pet, Time To Pet is not built for accounting tasks like recording business expenses, payroll taxes, or generating P&L statements that calculate leftover revenue after paying staff. For these calculations, you should use dedicated accounting software or consult an accounting professional outside of Time To Pet.
