GST code for expenses

Hi, is it possible to change the tax code for individual GL Expense Accounts? We are not GST registered so I would like to set all expense codes to N-T so that someone doesn't post an invoice with GS...

    Hi NickiD1 

     

    Thanks for your post.

     

    If your business is not GST registered, you shouldn't need to change tax codes on any of the accounts, therefore the option is not there.

     

    You can register your business as not GST registered under Business Name>>Business Settings>>GST settings.

     

    If you are GST registered, you can assign a tax code to any detail account in your accounts list. The tax code you assign will appear as the default tax code when you post a transaction to this account.

    For example, you have assigned the GST tax code to an expense account. When you settle a bill in the Spend Money window and allocate it to this account, the GST tax code will appear in this window by default.

    You can allocate a tax code to an account. To open this window, go to the Accounting menu > Chart of accounts, and click account name of the required account.
