  • Performance improvements on locked forms
    We've improved the time it takes to open locked forms when you're filing a return.

  • Details about transfers from other returns (Transfers received schedule)
    You can create a Transfers received schedule that shows what a tax return’s Transfer from other returns value consists of.

  • Edit the default tax notice email or Portal task text
    MYOB Practice Administrators can edit the default email and Portal task text that’s used each time you send a tax notice. Edit the text in the Cover email text field in your MYOB Practice settings.

      • You can insert field variables to automatically populate specific sections of the email with relevant text, like the client name.

      • You can use HTML elements to apply formatting to the email text. For example, you can enter a sentence between <p> and </p> to create a paragraph, or place a word between <b> and </b> to bold that word. Learn more about HTML text.

      • There’s also an option to send yourself a sample email to preview what the output will look like.

    Learn more about setting the default text.

    • Changes you make to the Cover email text apply to all tax notice emails and Portal tasks sent to your practice’s clients. But if you're sending an individual tax notice rather than multiple tax notices in bulk, you’ll be given an opportunity to make once-off edits to the default text before sending the tax notice.
    • We’ll be adding more field variable options soon. We're also looking into making additional enhancements to email editing options over this quarter. (Now available from 8 November!)

    titleWorking for families calculations now available

    IR3 only
    Working for families tax credits calculations just got easier! Amounts are automatically calculated based on the data that you enter into the schedule. You previously had to manually calculate and enter the amounts.

    UI Text Box
    typewarning

    You can no longer manually enter or edit the tax credit entitlement amounts, but any previously entered amounts will remain in the schedule.

    If you want to use automatic calculations, delete the schedule, then add the schedule again and enter the dependant's details.

    titleWorking for families schedule field is now prepopulated

The automatically calculated fields will already be populated.
    • If you have in-progress tax notices...
      ...where you've added any voluntary adjustments, check the amounts in these tax notices. The voluntary amounts may already be taken into account by the fields automatically synchronised from Data reconciliation. If this is the case, you'll have a duplicated amount from the manual and automatic adjustment.
      To fix tax notices with duplicated amounts, remove the voluntary adjustments in the tax notice.

    titleStudent loan schedule fields are now prepopulated and included in tax statements

    IR3 and IR3NR 2021 onwards

    The Total repayments made to IR and 20xx Total interim repayments made to IR fields are automatically populated with data synchronised from Data reconciliation transactions. You can't manually edit these fields. 20xx Total interim repayments made to IR is a new field, and you previously had to complete Total repayments made to IR by manually entering the data.

    The data from these fields is displayed in the tax statement in the Payment summary section in two new fields: 20xx Student loan interim and 20xx Student loan paid.

    If you have any approved tax notices with a status of Ready for client and you want to use the automatically populated data, you need to click Send for rework at the top of the tax notice to change the status back to In progress.

    titleData reconciliation tax types and period summary
    UI Text Box
    typenote

    As part of the rollout of this feature, you may notice some unreconciled IR transactions from the last couple of days. If this happens, you can simply reconcile the transactions.

    We've automatically reconciled all transactions for the last 2 years for the SLS, WFF and REB tax types.

    View more tax types in Data reconciliation

    When viewing the Data reconciliation page in the client-centric view, you can select the Tax Type to display data related to that particular tax type.

    For individual entities, the Tax Type options are Income tax, Tax credits, Working for families or Student loan.

    For other entities, the Tax Type option is Income tax.

    Previously, you could only display income tax (INC) transactions for all entity types.

    The Tax Type options for individual entities give you more information for evaluating your clients' liability, giving you a complete picture of what a client’s tax position is for each tax type. These details will be included when preparing tax notices and tax returns, reducing the need for manual MYOB transactions or voluntary adjustments.

    We’ve also renamed the Refresh IR data button to Refresh IRD INC data because it can only refresh income tax data, regardless of which Tax Type you selected.

    New Period summary section in Data reconciliation

    When viewing the Data reconciliation page in the client-centric view, you now have a quick way to check the balance owing and assessment value for the selected period. You can view this information in the IR balance owing and Total IR assessment value fields under Period summary.

    • IR balance owing—The balance value from the IR data feed for the tax type and period.

    • Total IR assessment value—The total assessment value from the IR statements section of the page, for the tax type and period.

    The Period summary section is available for all tax types.

    titleCapture MYOB transactions for provisional tax notices

    We’ve made it easier to track MYOB transactions for expected future payments. There are a couple of new fields on the provisional Tax notices page to help with this, and a change to an existing field.

    • Payments & transfers—This existing field now only displays reconciled IR transactions from Data reconciliation.
    • Expected payments & transfers—This new field displays unreconciled MYOB transactions from Data reconciliation and transfers that aren’t covered by IR transactions.

    • Tax pooling payments—This new field displays the tax pooling payment amount that was previously displayed alongside the Payments & transfers amount. The calculation hasn’t changed, but it’s easier to work with the amount in its own field.
    UI Text Box
    typewarning

    This changes how tax notice calculations work. It's important that you check that amounts in any in-progress tax notices are correct before sending the notice for approval. Learn more.

titleAugust 2021

  • Provisional tax option filter on the Tax notices page
    We've added a Provisional tax option drop-down to the More filters options in the Tax notices filter bar. This filter lets you choose whether to display provisional tax notices using only the standard option, only the estimation option, or all tax notices regardless of whether they are provisional tax notices. Learn more about filtering.

27 August

  • Voluntary adjustments filter on the Tax notices page
    We've added a Voluntary adjustments drop-down to the More filters options in the Tax notices filter bar. This filter lets you choose whether to display tax notices that have a voluntary adjustment. You can display:
    • tax notices with a specific voluntary adjustment type (for example, FAM, FBT, GST, INC or SLS)
    • all tax notices with any voluntary adjustment type
    • tax notices that don't have a voluntary adjustment
    • all tax notices whether they have a voluntary adjustment or not.
    Learn more about filtering.
    Learn more about voluntary adjustments for provisional tax or terminal tax.

26 August

  • Delivery preference filter on the Tax notices page
    We've added a Delivery preference drop-down to the More filters options in the Tax notices filter bar. This filter lets you choose whether to display tax notices that are set to Send manually, Send task to client, Send email to client or All.
    This is a useful filter to apply when selecting tax notices to send in bulk. The tax notices that need to be sent manually can't be sent in bulk, so this filter lets you easily exclude those tax notices. It also lets you easily see just those tax notices that you need to prepare for sending manually.
    Learn more.

18 August

  • Assign users to roles in bulk
    Now there's an easier way to control which users can perform certain actions in MYOB Practice in bulk. Learn more.
    First, you'll need to have opted in to Access Management to assign staff to roles in bulk.

17 August

  • New filter options on the Tax notices page
    We’ve added a Nil balance checkbox and Tax pooling drop-down to the More filters options in the Tax notices filter bar. You can use these options to filter the results displayed on the Tax notices page, which can be useful for performing bulk actions on a set of tax notices.
    • Nil balance amounts:
      Select the Nil balance checkbox to display tax notices with a 0.00 amount.
    • Tax pooling:
      Select an option from the Tax pooling drop-down (Yes, No or All) to display tax notices based on whether the client is using tax pooling.
    Learn more about filtering, or tax pooling for provisional or terminal tax notices.

13 August

  • Send a copy of tax notice emails to your practice
    When you send emails with tax notices to your clients, your practice can now receive a copy of the email. Your MYOB Practice Administrator will need to set a CC email address to use this feature.
    Learn more about sending tax notices and about setting up the CC email address.

6 August

  • Easily access IRD numbers

    • You can see your clients' IRD number on the top right of MYOB Practice. This is convenient as a quick reference when you’re working on data reconciliation, tax notices or tax returns. The IRD number is displayed on any page when you select a client from the Contact list or client sidebar.

    • You can search for your client’s IRD number in the Search field on the Contact list page. Type in an IRD number and the page will show you the associated client.

2 August

  • Minor Data reconciliation and Tax notices improvements
    • You can see the Unreconciled transactions panel in Data reconciliation even when there are no currently unreconciled transactions. This means you can always access the Add MYOB transaction function. Learn more.
    • In the Data reconciliation and Tax notices sections, wherever there were references to IRD in the user interface, these references are now displayed as IR.
    • We’ve added a Data reconciliation heading above the filters in the All clients view.
