We’ve been hearing some great ideas lately here's a new one from someone who reached out via chat. Picture this: You want to bill your client $1000. Boom! You punch that in, hit the GST-exclusive toggle, and like magic, Solo adds the 10% GST for you. Your invoice now shows $1000 + $100 GST = $1100 total. No more mental gymnastics or calculator acrobatics! • One click to flip between GST-inclusive and exclusive • Crystal-clear labels (because who needs more tax-induced headaches?) • Math that actually adds up (we know, revolutionary stuff) Is this the invoicing nirvana you've been dreaming of? Give us a shout in the comments or slam that thumbs-up button. The more noise you make, the quicker we can turn Solo into your personal GST-wrangling sidekick.
Saving frequently used items
We got this great idea via the digital assistant and we thought we simply MUST share it with our Solmates and see what you guys think. Don't forget to vote on the ideas you'd like to see implemented! "I’d love to have a way to save my go-to invoice items instead of typing them out every single time. For example, if I often bill for “Logo Design” at $500, I could just save it once and quickly add it to any invoice. It would save me so much time and effort, making invoicing way easier and more efficient."Time tracking that feels like magic
I always end up working more hours than I quote and bill for. Tracking time accurately is difficult, and I would rather undercharge myself than risk making my clients feel overcharged. It's easier to give away that extra 20-30% of work for free than to spend time on the admin of making sure I got things right that I find super tedious. It would be incredible if Solo offered a time tracking tool that could automatically capture my work activities with minimal manual input. Ideally, it would track what I'm doing, identify the client, and calculate the cost based on any data it can access from my phone or PC, calendar or anything else. This tool could then generate an itemised invoice with brief descriptions of the work, giving my clients confidence that they're receiving value for their money. I have a lot of data that I would gladly feed to Solo to make this happen. My calendar shows client bookings, Google Docs and other apps often include client names in their titles, and I use a timer app (when I remember) to track my work time. I'd be happy to provide all this data in exchange for an invoice that looks good and earns me that extra 20-30% that I really should be charging.Send a Tax receipt when I record a payment
I get asked fairly often by my clients for a receipt when they pay me. Right now, I’m just recording a payment when my client has paid and then sending the updated invoice that shows the outstanding balance as zero dollars. This works most of the time, but occasionally, people ask if that’s okay as a receipt, and honestly, I’m not sure if it is. What I’d really love is for Solo to automatically fire off a Tax receipt when I record a payment, that way my customer knows I've got the money, they have what they need for their records and I don't have to spend time telling them what I already told Solo.Release 2.1 is here!

Time tracker and ABN help
Howdy! I looked online as to if I could have a time tracker on solo and the web said yes! And that I had to enable it in my "settings" so I signed into My Account and could not do anything. I signed into MYOB Business to and no joy. So if this is possible, how? Also when I logged into My Account and was going everything as clickable tiles and drop down menus I came across information that says my ABN/ACN was not provided and to "contact support" to provide these details. When I clicked the link to contact support to get contact information I was greeted with a blank page. How is it that my ABN is "not provided" when it was the third or fourth piece of information that I provided upon sign up and why is there no contact information on the contact page?It's Time To Go Solo!
