Tailor the left hand navigation menu under Your Books to suit how you work in QuickBooks Online Accountant. Let’s take a look at how this new feature works.
Firstly, clicking on the edit pencil next to Your Books (your very own QuickBooks Online Plus subscription to manage your practice’s books) now gives you access to tailor your menu settings.
You can easily select the menu items you’d like to view as well as unmark those you don’t use so don’t need to see. You can also move menu items around using simple drag and drop functionality so they’re in the order you prefer too.
For those items you access frequently, you can now bookmark them. And soon you’ll be able to display your bookmarks at the top of the screen to make them easier to access. Watch this space.
And at any stage, you can reset your menu items back to the default setting so you’re always in control. Jump into QuickBooks Online Accountant and have a look today.
Hot on the heels of our recent menu customisation updates, we’ve added more customisation to both QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Online Accountant. Now you can add, remove, resize and reorder the widgets on the business overview dashboard. As with menu customisation, changes are made at the individual user level and they won’t impact your data. Plus, if you ever need it, you can always reset to the default experience—so customise to your heart's content!
The 2023 tax forms are now available. LodgeiT will automatically create new forms for you in a few days. We will ensure that relevant field values will roll forward from 2022 returns. Check out the ATO's overview of key changes.
Please note pre-filling data from the ATO is available from 1 July as the ATO receives it, with most data being available by the end of July.
You can now easily configure and see who is responsible for particular clients by organising colleagues into teams and assigning them to client groups or clients. We have also introduced an outside collaborator role, who can only access the clients and work they are assigned to.

Now you can configure a default contact source on a tax return separately for a postal address, phone and email. You can configure it to automatically populate with your details, client details or carry forward them from a prior year tax return. Additionally, you can override any option in the client settings.
We added an option to include the substantiation declaration for activity statements.
To keep your valuable data safe, we highly recommend switching your second-factor authentication from SMS to an authenticator app. This will provide a safer, more reliable level of security. You can change your preference in your account settings.
For new users, SMS as the second-factor authentication is not available anymore.
