Build the federal and Saskatchewan reporting map
The best calendar begins with reporting periods, not generic monthly reminders. A return can be monthly, quarterly, annual, or triggered by a specific event. The records should record each program account, reporting frequency, responsible person, source schedule, and approval date. For GST or HST, the applicable rate can depend on the supply and the CRA place of supply rules, not simply the city shown on the invoice. A separate provincial sales tax requires its own current provincial review.
