Setup: BAS Preparation

[deepfried]

Hi there

At the moment MyobLive doesn't seem to have much automated functionalityfor BAS. 

Given that the system already calcuates the BAS it seems really odd that the user has to manually create a spend journal or a reversal to allocate GST Paid, Collected, PAYG instalment etc, and also fill in the ATO forms.  Surely this could all be automated, afterall it's the most confusing thing for small business and the one where MYOB already does much of the heavy lifting (in my case, the main reason for using the package in the first place).

WHy is it not possible to generate a report to submit directly to the ATO for Monthly PAYG notification?

E-record could do it, surely the format is not top secret?!

[Fizzkid]

Why does the system not generate a report for electronic submission to the ATO?

A time-line would be useful...

Just wondering why LiveAccounts does not have a BASLink? Surely this would be a top priority before releasing this product? Is it on the agenda?  If yes, when?  If no, why not?

Yes please this is the 1 thing absolutly essential for any small business.

Please can we have an expected date for this feature its a deal breaker, I am considering going back to the desk top version because of this.

Hi Reason8, LiveAccounts has all the processes and reporting required for a small business to complete their BAS. The one feature we currently do not have is the ability to electronically lodge to the ATO. We hope to have SBR lodgement in LiveAccounts in 2013. Thanks Richard Puffe LiveAccounts Product Manager

Thank you for your suggestion, deepfried, we're happy to look into the options for adding this. It would be great to see some feedback form the rest of the community to see if they would like to see this feature added as well.

This is a no brainer. Taking information from one system, to write on a form, which will be data entered to another defies all to B2B logic. This functionality is avaialble in most packages and needs to be added to Live accounts.
