We installed the 2019.a update last night and are still having the same validation error. Is there any further guidance available?

Hey Tom as per my previous post.

My understanding is the ATO wanted a breakdown of deductions this year meaning MYOB had to release the DDCTNS schedule within AE Tax. This schedule duplicates most if not all the deductions. However with the motor vehicle it uses cents and has rounding issues. As a result what you have probably entered at MVE the normal Motor Vehicle Schedule wont match this new schedule as it doesnt have cent rounding.

The work around is to put in cents amounts on the DDCTNS schedule to get it to match the MVE schedule. Its painful and why MYOB bothered to use cent rounding I cant figure out.

We had the same error come up today for a client using the logbook method at D1. The motor vehicle was in the depreciation worksheet and was integrating into D1 automatically for the depreciation amount.

Our work around was to remove the integration from the depreciation worksheet, input all of the motor vehicle expenses in the MV worksheet as their apportioned amount (we just multiplied the gross amount with the logbook percentage and input that) and recorded the logbook percentage as 100%. Obviously percentage is wrong but the deduction amount is correct.

Not ideal but it fixed the error for lodgment.
