Not Registered for GST Not Working In MYOB Business Pro

Question

I am not registered for GST and have selected that I am not registered for GST in MYOB Business Pro, Business settings &gt; GST settings. When I go to enter my first inventory item, the tax code is set to N-T with a yellow warning that the tax code needs to be updated because I am not registered for GST (weird). However, all items are set to N-T in the chart of accounts, and when I go to enter my second item, the tax code is greyed out and set to INP. Is this a bug, or have I overlooked something?

Hi Pops,
&nbsp;
Thank you for your post, and welcome to the Community forum.

If your business is not registered with GST, the default tax code that should appear will be N-T. In this case, could you please clear your browser cache or try a different browser, then try creating your inventory item again to see if you'll receive a warning with the N-T tax code? It's weird that it's creating an error and setting up a tax code when it shouldn't be. Could you please include screenshots of your GST settings, the warning message that appears when you enter your first item, and lastly, the INP code that is grayed out when you enter your second item, so I can investigate further? Please remove any sensitive information before posting it to the community forum for security purposes.

Thank you for your response. I appreciate you providing all the needed information. I've checked the screenshots, and it seems weird. Could you try to go back to the business settings and turn on the GST settings, then change the default item tax code to N-T, then turn off GST? Then please let me know how you go along and if the issue persists after changing the GST setting to refresh and sync the information.

After turning on GST and going to set up my first item again, both tax codes were empty. Then, when I selected the Selling Income and Buying Expense account, the tax code automatically switched to N-T as set up in the chart of accounts where all tax codes are set to N-T. The same was true when I set up a second and third item. You could say it works only when GST is turned on and not when off. When I turned GST off, the entered items showed the N-T warning like before and the tax code for a new item was set to grayed out INP codes again.
