    Hi uplift1 

     

    Thanks for your post. You are correct that a BAS payment is recorded in Spend Money and a BAS refund is recorded in Receive Money. When it comes to the accounts to allocate the payment/refund to, you would use the applicable liability accounts.

     

    This help article explains in detail how to record these transactions: Recording your ATO payments or credits. A personal tip from me is that it's also a good idea to reconcile those liability accounts back to zero after paying your BAS.

     

    Please let me know if you need further help.
