Spend Money/Receive Money: Indicate how you wish transaction to be displayed for GST
Currently, in Spend Money/Receive Money, there is no option to choose which side of the BAS (GST Collected vs GST Paid) the transaction should be reported oni.e.. if its Spend Money = GST Paid and Receive Money = GST Collected. Most of the time, this is the correct treatment, However there are often situations where this is not the case. For example if you receive a refund for a purchase (say a new computer that originally was paid via Spend Money, hence you use Receive Money to record the refund), then it will incorrectly report on the BAS under GST collected, when it should be a reduction in input tax credits. General journal have the toggle button to be able to choose which side of the BAS the transaction should be reported on. Why does Spend/Receive money not have this toggle feature also? The default should obviously be Spend Money= Purchases, Receive Money= Sales, however there should be option to change the GST reporting side if/when needed.I understand there is a work around involving additional tax codes, but I think this just complicates a simple process.

When entering a BAS payment, the bank fees do not allow an allocation of negative number to be entered. Live a/c's requires a spend/receive money transacton to be entered and then matched to bank transaction. Wouldn't it be easier and more efficient just to allow negative number to be recorded? This function is available in the Banklink program via a 'dissect' function. When entering a spend/receive money transaction, I need to remember the date of the transaction, which bank to 'Pay From' then the actual numbers and accounts. Seems very inefficient and unnecessary when a simple allocation can take place in the bank feed.

We owe the ATO and are paying it off every month. The statement I just received has the fuel tax credit as a credit into the account, therefore reducing our overall debt with them. I've started a liablity account called 'payments to the ATO' to keep track of the repayments and interest. My question is...how do I record the fuel tax credit and possibly the pay as you go tax withheld and gst as debits into this account. I appreciate your response. Thank you.Solved2.1KViews0likes3CommentsBAS Reports using APIs
Hello, We are working with the AccountRight Live APIs. From the developer documentation I didn't find any APIs to get the published BAS reports. I'm wondering if there is any support to get the BAS reports using the APIs and/or what the roadmap is for supporting the same. Any information you provide would be helpful. Thx BarathSolved1.2KViews0likes1CommentActivity Statement Lodgement Report
Hi - we have a similar issue to one previously reported where we are receiving 'The agency has not responded yet' error message in the Agents Report. There is no change despite unscheduling and rescheduling a number of times. The report has now attempted to download for 5 days with no result. Currently, we are able to get a single report at a time, but we would appreciate a solution to this issue. Thanks in advanceSolved1KViews0likes2Comments
