titleWhat's changing?

We've updated our designs in line with MYOB Practice. We've made improvements to:

  • automatically add the assigned agent and client for new activity statements
  • made it easier to find information in our new BAS forms
  • simplified the workflow to make it easier to create, manage and lodge activity statements online.

Once lodged, you can continue to view activity statements in the old system. The new system only lists activity statements created in the new system.

titleCan I create a new BAS in the old system?

No. We've disabled the ability to create a BAS in the old system. We recommend creating a BAS in the new system to reap the benefits of the upgrade.
