If you use MYOB AE/AO, once you've upgraded, you'll start receiving all your Inland Revenue transactions in MYOB Practice. So it's important that you continue to reconcile these transactions in MYOB Practice instead of AE/AO, so you don't need to reconcile them again later.

Reconciling transactions

There are two types of transactions in Data reconciliation:

IR transactions are downloaded directly from Inland Revenue and reflect the transactions in your client's myIR account.
MYOB transactions are transactions that you've added manually, or that have been generated as a result of a tax notice or tax return created in MYOB Practice.

You can reconcile multiple transactions at once, and of different transaction types. For example, you can reconcile two IR transactions (payment and a transfer) and one MYOB transaction.

Transactions will be automatically reconciled where:

the MYOB transaction and IR transaction amounts are similar (within $0.05 of each other)
the transactions are dated within 7 days of each other.
they have the same transaction type.

When you file a tax return a transaction for the tax return assessment, refund or transfer will be added.

Reconciled and unreconciled transactions panels

The Reconciled transactions panel will only be displayed if there are transactions in those categories. The Unreconciled transactions panel is displayed even if there are no currently unreconciled transactions, so that you can always access the Add MYOB transaction function.

Adding an unreconciled MYOB transaction is useful if you want to make an expected transfer or payment outside of what the tax return or tax notice would normally create. For example, if you use tax pooling.

UI Text Box

type	note

Unreconciled MYOB transactions for payments or transfers will be displayed as part of the tax return information. However, these transactions won’t be used in calculations by tax notices. Tax notices will only use reconciled and unreconciled IR transactions in calculating payments required.

Checking and refreshing data

We check for new IR transactions every night, automatically. Any new IR transactions will appear in your client's Data reconciliation page, ready for you to reconcile the very next day. Learn more about when we receive IR data.

You can also check for new Income tax, Tax credits, Student loan and Working for families transactions at any time using the Data reconciliation Refresh IR data button.

title	To reconcile an assessment transaction

First, here's bit about how reconciling an assessment transaction works...

If you file a tax return through MYOB Practice

An MYOB transaction for the tax return assessment is automatically created in your client's Data reconciliation page.

When reconciling this transaction against the IR transaction for Inland Revenue's assessment, if the MYOB and IR Residual Income Tax (RIT) amounts differ by more than $0.05, the Reconcile transactions window appears to let you enter the IR assessment details However, if you've filed a tax return through MYOB Practice and the RIT amounts differ by less than $0.05, then we'll use the data from your client's tax return in MYOB Practice to prepopulate tax notices.

If you haven't filed through MYOB Practice

If you haven't filed the tax return through MYOB Practice but you're reconciling the Inland Revenue's assessment transaction, you'll still see the Reconcile transaction window. This lets you enter the IR assessment details when you add an MYOB transaction for the assessment amount, or duplicate the IR transaction using Add as MYOB transaction.

We use these IR assessment details to calculate provisional and terminal tax in tax notices, so that your client can pay the right amount of tax, without incurring interest on underpayment.

You can enter any text into the Description field to record information about the transaction. The description entered doesn't display anywhere else, but may be useful to store brief notes.
When adding a transfer transaction, it's only created for the client and the year that you're adding it into. The contra-entry of the transfer doesn't get automatically generated at the same time, even if it's for the same client. You'll need to go to the relevant client and year to record the contra-entry of the transfer, using the Add MYOB transaction function again.

To duplicate a transaction

Select the transactions you want to duplicate from the Unreconciled transactions table. The Reconcile, Add as MYOB Transaction and Delete buttons appear above the list of transactions.
Click Add as MYOB transaction. The details of the transaction is duplicated and added as an MYOB Transaction.

If you don't receive an IR tax return assessment because it has a $0.00 value, you can delete the MYOB assessment transaction with a $0.00 value so you don't end up with unreconciled transactions that are no longer needed.

If you have an MYOB assessment that has a value (anything that's not $0.00) that you want to delete, you'll need to contact support.

Select the transaction you want to delete from the Unreconciled transactions table. The Reconcile, Add as MYOB Transaction and Delete buttons appear above the list of transactions.
