GST rules implemented in Synergetic

The following rules apply when implementing Synergetic in Australia and New Zealand:

  1. If a transaction has a tax code it will appear on the BAS, except tax code N.
  2. The tax code loaded on the general ledger account is the default on all transactions but can be changed at entry time.
  3. No payroll sourced transaction will have a tax code.
  4. If a transaction is allocated to a general ledger code which has a classification of INCOME it will appear as a Supply on the BAS.
  5. If a transaction is allocated to a general ledger code that has a classification of EXPENSE it will appear as an Acquisition on the BAS.
  6. If a transaction is allocated to a general ledger code that has neither a classification of INCOME or EXPENSE and the transaction is debtor sourced, it will appear as Supply on the BAS.
  7. If a transaction is allocated to a general ledger code that has neither a classification of INCOME or EXPENSE and the transaction is creditor sourced, it will appear as Acquisition on the BAS.
  8. Only define a classification of INCOME on the general ledger account if it must only appear as a Supply on the BAS.
  9. Only define a classification of EXPENSE on the general ledger account if it must only appear as an Acquisition on the BAS.
  10. If a transaction is allocated to a general ledger code which has a classification with a Synergy Meaning of ASSET and the transaction is creditors sourced it will appear as an Asset Acquisition on the BAS.
  11. In General Ledger Journals you can change the:
    • classification code
    • tax code.
  12. Only transactions without a tax implication can be posted prior to the last BAS date / period.
    For example, transactions with a tax code of N (Not on BAS).
