Hello there, mh1972,
Turning off GST in QuickBooks Self-Employed is easy. You can do it with three steps, here's how:
Also, creating invoices in QBSE is simple: Easy invoicing in QuickBooks Self-Employed.
Let me know if you have more questions about QBSE.
Unfortunately this also deletes your ABN number and you won't be able to input the ABN manually.
Obviously, the intuit developers do not understand the law in Australia.
You MUST show your ABN on your invoices, whether you're registered for GST or not.
I like this simple invoicing program over the alternatives at Xero and MYOB, but if it is not compliant with our law it's rather useless.
Hi there, Marina24.
I appreciate you joining the thread and bringing this situation to our attention.
QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE) provides the functionality to charge the GST on Invoices. When GST is enabled on an invoice, all line items will be required to designated to include or exclude GST, and then QBSE will calculate the total GST as a subtotal line at the bottom of the invoice. If there are no line items that are marked for GST, the Invoice preview will not show the 10% GST subtotal reference line, and the Invoice will display GST not included as a result.
I understand how the workflow you're looking for would be beneficial to your business. Though our Feedback Board has been closed, I can pass it along here on my end.
To give you more of an idea on how QBSE works, you can visit this website: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/au/self-employed/.
there's anything else I can do for you, please let me know by commenting below. I'm more than happy to offer additional assistance.
I have seen on many threads now about the disfunction of some aspects of Quickbooks Self Employed. Namely, the inability to create an invoice and mark as paid BEFORE sending to client (so they don't have to receive two emails - especially if they paid at time of service and/or don't need to receive an invoice/receipt at all). Also, why can you not add your ABN if you do not pay GST? This is law. Not everyone is required to charge/pay GST but EVERYONE is required to have their ABN on their invoices. The developers need to be made aware of these things if they are going to create products for this region. We need it to work for us. Please pass on urgent need for small changes.
Hi siouxsu,
In QuickBooks Self-Employed, you'll need to send the invoice first before you can mark it as paid. Also, you can add ABN on your invoices even if you're not registered for GST by following these steps.
I can see how helpful for you and your business to be able to record an invoice payment before sending it to your customers and adding ABN on invoices if you're not registered for GST.
