    Hi RickWadrop 

     

    Thanks for your post. The BAS fields are populated based on the GST codes selected in the set up. You can check this by opening the statement and click on Settings>>Set up activity statement fields. 

     

    If the set up is correct click on Update from ledger in the top right corner to refresh the fields.

     

    Please let me know if you need further help.

Thanks for the response.  As it happens I have now found out that the setup details are apparently stored on the PC I was using which was destroyed in a recent flood.  I purchased  a new PC and as I was online, continued working with no problem until I tried to produce a BAS return.   I have found a backup of the BASlink file and will attempt to use it

    I have found a backup BASlink setup file but have been unable to import it into Accountright.  The instructions I found in posts re similar problems do not seem to match what I have on my screens.  The Import/Export Assistant under the File Tab does not seem to cover this situation.  

    (I use Accountright but am not an accountant and want to use the setup that was established before I took over the job)

    Any advise (apart from find an accountant to help me setup again)?

      Hi RickWadrop 

       

      If you're lodging manually using BASlink the setup file is stored on your PC in the BASlink/Setup folder and the settings flow through to BASlink from there.

       

      If you've replaced the existing BASLink folder with the saved setup and the BAS is blank, in the BASlink window go to File>>Setup & Links>>Import Setup & Links and navigate to the .BAS file for that ABN to load in those settings.

       

       

      The Help Article, BASlink FAQs, has more information to help with this.

       

      I'd also recommend having a look at lodging the BAS online, once you've done the setup it's a lot quicker and easier than lodging manually.

       

      Please let me know if you need further help.

        My attempts to follow your eMail instructions were not successful.  However once I looked at your Forum post I saw the light and successfully imported a backup BAS setup file,  My BAS statement now has figures in it.

         

        Thank You
