"Thanks Heather. No problem at all.  I thought we'd discussed it but then you got me thinking whether we had!  We're always keen to hear feedback and experiences.  So far feedback on what we're thinking around this has…"

"Tim, I agree we probably did talk about it. I am trying to absorb everything, and make sure I am clear where everything stands. I did mention to someone else (about a dozen times) their beta product was slow, and they have come out and…"

"Thanks Heather Sorry - thought we'd covered this during our chat in Brisbane... Mike commented earlier in this thread on the Amounts 'do not include tax' option and tax code it applies as well. Updating this is part of…"

"Hi Heather We caught up in Brisbane at the Xero roadshow around our thinking how we can make this easier and we were pleased you felt we were on the right track. Whilst we don't have a confirmed date yet of when, we're keen to make the…"

"Hey thanks to all contributors - yes I to am trying to get my head around No GST vs GST Exempt ... has there been any update from XERO Catherine... I understand copyright issues and using different terminology, but it seems a little bit too…"

"Thanks Cassandra for taking some time to talk to Tim from our Australian office. I understand it was a really valuable discussion and we appreciate you guys being so engaged and so patient. We're definitely trying to get some improvements…"

"Thinking about this some more, this could be my biggest issue with the GST tax treatment and goes against logic as it seems we all agree."

"Just ran a test in Demo to me I get the following results    Revenue GST on Income goes to G1 and GST to 1A GST on Exports goes to G2 and G1 and No GST  GST Free Income goes to G3 and G1 and No GST Input Tax goes to G4 and G1 and No…"

"I agree with Cassandra. The default tax treatment when "include tax" checkbox unselected is just wrong. Shame that this fundamental error in accounting software is still not fixed. At the moment, I prefer clients with a shoe box of…"

"Catherine When entering a transaction and de-selecting the "include tax" checkbox, the GST coding defaults to No GST. This should report as No GST or GST Exempt, as its utilisation would be on transactions that are outside of the GST…"
