    Hello Ravinder 

     

    If you have already recorded the purchase and the only difference between your AccountRight record and the below invoice is the tax code, I would recommend following the steps in this Help Article: Non-standard GST amounts. At the bottom you will find a FAQ for How do I fix a transaction recorded with the wrong GST/Tax code? Essentially, you are looking at either manually changing the transaction (instructions here) or deleting the record in AcountRight in which the tax was NT and re-entering that purchase with the applicable GST. Please let me know how you go and if I can assist any further.

      Hi Emily

      Thanks for your message.

      But still confused, my question is that I have record the purchase with N-T as there was no GST mentioned in the commercial invoice recieved from the supplier amounting  $14493 (AUD) on 17.06.2020 and paid all the amount on 22.6.2020. 

      If I am not wrong, for the overseas purchase, we need to pay tax to the custom when items will reach here, not to the overseas supplier, that's why I recorded the purchase with tax code N-T.

      Now I received the above tax invoice from custom on 11.8.2020 but I don't understand how to record it in MYOB, especially amounts in "Bold"

        Hello Ravinder 

         

        Thank you for clarifying. In that case I would recommend having a look at this Help Article: Non-standard GST amounts and please refer to the opened drop-down menu for A transaction that is all GST. This should answer any further questions about the process, which is essentially entering two lines against the invoice:

        • one line for the original transaction amount to calculate the GST
        • one line to negate the original transaction amount to leave just the GST

        But, in case you'd like a few other examples, there are some former posts (here, here, here) with similar queries that have great information from some of the Partners and other moderators we have here on the forum. Some of them offer different advice and generally speaking I would follow what is outlined in the MYOB Help Article, but you might see something that asissts in your scenario.
