Report: Transaction Tax Codes - Payment Basis
Can we get a Standard Transaction Report that lists transactions by Account Code and includes description/narration/memo, GST Gross, GST Value, GST Net. I can supply an example. The best I've seen is the Banklink Ledger Report. I need something to check the accuracy of the data when doing GSTs. The current GST Detial (Invoice) report doesn't include the Accounts so there is no way I know if a motor vehicle expense has been wronlgy coded to Postage other than the Card File name. There is also no narration so I can't see if the Entertainment has been adjusted for the non-deductible/personal use portion. Thanks Andrew Crawford I asked the Community if such a report existed, topic GST Audit Report, I attached some examples of what I wanted. "Standard Transaction Report" Based on further comments -TransactionGST Codes report is a suitable report for the requirements, however, can't be run on a payment basis.Re: Standard Transaction Report
Dear Suja_P Have you heard anything back from the relevant teams? Re the report; it was good for clients on Invoice Basis but I couldn't get it to work for Payments Basis.My boss, Bill Singh, liked the report I produced, he led the GST implementation team into Fiji and Delhi and work for ~30 years with the IRD before going into Public Practice. I value his opinion, if he says he liked it then it probably met all the bells and whistles required. NowI want to deliver a Payments Basis report but Ineed help from the relevant team. Could you ask one of the relevant team members to consider giving you an update and if possible maybe getting in contact with me so we can see if we can find a Payments Basis report. I would have thought one of the relevant team members may have contacted me / you to find out what report I was using to see if it could be of value to the wider MYOB community to allow them tobe of greater service to their clients. However you know what is best use of MYOB's resources, I'm in your capable hands. Thank you Andrew Crawford Gulf Accountants Ltd2.6KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Standard Transaction Report
Dear Suja Did you go to a roadshow? i am over 50 so have been to many events and have a good idea of what a good roadshow is and the roadshow I went to was poor. I hung around after to speak to MYOB people, the lady who played teh accountant role in the dumb role play was one i spoke to but she had no idea. I waited to speak to the breakout guys but they were off to catch a plane. I don't know why I'm not getting my point across. The roadhsow was poor yet you guys think it was wonderful. I don't have any reason to be negative of MYOB so why would I be so negative when you guys are so positive? Anyway on the bright side I have found a report that I can manipulate that gives me the GST Audit Report. The shame is the skeleton of the report is avaiable in MYOB yet no-one was able to point me in the right direction. The GST Exception repots were suggested, that was a joke. At least I can get on and can now stop trying to raise votes. What a stupid stupid system, I am annoyed with MYOB for failing me yet I'm then expected to work for MYOB to convince the other 700000+ users to back my idea request. That would be like asking a fired employee to head hunt his replacement. Anyway best of luck and please take off teh rose coloured glasses, have a look at the roadshow crowd videos with a critical eye. I had expectations and the dumb role play missed them by a long way.

This is the frustration, get votes to get a change. Since I put the idea on here there have been 5 comments so it is never going to get votes yet it is a bread and butter report that I've finally got tired of not having. I sat through the under-whelming Roadshow hoping to talk to someone who could walk the talk of making business easier, 3 hours before a break, really sore bum, bad customer service. That aside tell me in one simple step how I can review 8 pages of coded transactions to make sure they have been coded correctly and the GST has been treated correctly. At present I export the GST Detail (Invoice) report to excel, sort by GST out and GST input and then by card file and then by amount so the larger amounts are at the top of each card file so hopefully I spot any major variances first. It looks highly likely the report I have seen in other client accounting packages doesn't exist and I won't be holding my breath hoping to win a popularity contest to get what I want. Look at it another way, 550,000 users, 5 comments in a week, does this mean 549,995 users don't want it or maybe 549,995 users don't visit the Community Forum because it is useless and they have other things to do with their time. In 5 years I had never visited the Community Forum and there are probably a dozen good ideas i would have voted on but MYOB isn't my life and I really don't want to hope my idea could be judged to be of value to MYOB. I don't need to win favour form MYOB, I need a report that is a basic report everywhere else and if MYOB doesn't think that it isn't something MYOB should be offering as well then that is MYOB's business. Has any of the MYOB people tried to validate 8 pages of transactions in the GST Detail (Invoice) report to see if it is possible? Andrew7KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Standard Transaction Report
Thanks for the support, I feel I'm getting pushed away from MYOB. If I can't get a simple report that everyone else seems to produce as a matter of course then I become reluctant to use MYOB. I understand I can't get everything but I am tired of using work arounds. Hopefully the developers are on the verge of releasing a standard transaction report. Interesting to hear Essentials has it, maybe it is just a simpel cut and paste for AccountRight.7.1KViews0likes0Comments
