GST not showing as on General Ledger Report

Question

Hi&nbsp;I have seen many posts regarding this issue but I dont think MYOB staff are understanding what is being requested. We understand how the general ledger is the net balance, but we would like the report to show what GST was attached to that transaction on the General Ledger Detailed Report in each account category. There use to be an option to see the component on earlier MYOB systems but this option seems to have been removed.&nbsp;Any accountant would explain that this detail when preparing the accounts is beneficial.&nbsp;Can you please add GST as an option to the General Ledger Detailed Report so we can view the GST component for each transaction within each account code.&nbsp;Thanks

Hi&nbsp;Catha&nbsp;
&nbsp;
It sounds like you are using the Desktop application to complete that process.
&nbsp;
As mentioned, the General Ledger Details report in the AccountRight Browser interface&nbsp;allows for that functionality. This will not be available in the Desktop application. As such, I would recommend running that report in that browser interface to have access to those fields and information.
&nbsp;
Please note: The company file would need to be stored online using AccountRight to have access to the browser interface to run that report with the additional information. Online/browser interface access is included in an active AccountRight subscription.

Hi&nbsp;Catha&nbsp;
The Tax amount of the individual transaction is a field that is available in the General Ledger Report through the AccountRight browser interface.

Thank you for the information however I require the report to be exported and the reports do not show the tax component in the reports. I need to check GST on all accounts and going into each account code is not a solution. Can the GST code please be added to the General Ledger Details report as an option in the filter section.

Thanks

Hi&nbsp;Catha&nbsp;
&nbsp;
The Tax code can be added to that report using the Customise button and then selecting the Tax Code option from the list of available Columns to Display.
In terms of exporting, just testing my AccountRight browser General Ledger details the values the Tax amount (and Tax Code) column does appear when exporting to Excel and PDF*. Are you experiencing a different situation?
&nbsp;
*I wouldn't recommend PDF if you are adding that additional tax code, it puts that extra column onto another page. Better to export it to Excel and then reduce the sizes of the columns before generating a PDF off that Excel sheet.

HI Steve&nbsp;Under Reports, General Ledger Detail, the insert/modify columns available do not have the option for the tax code to be included in the report. I am unable to locate the custom button as mentioned in your prior message. Can you please assist.&nbsp;Thanks&nbsp;&nbsp;
