Doug, I have been handling GST in GnuCash for more that 10 years with the ability to manually define a tax table at least that long. It has been possible to define accounts to collect GST collected and GST input tax on purchases for all that time. Not fully automatic, not specific to AUS GST, and

So the question remains, have you tried opening those exports yourself and with what software? What software is your accountant using? (QuickBooks? since you mentioned .qif) Did they try opening in a spreadsheet app? Now, if I understand correctly, you are currently sending the HTML or PDF

If you mean in Preferences > Accounting Period, I agree. I’m surprised this hasn’t been fixed to ‘relative years’ yet. Certainly, filing a RFE (Request for Enhancement) in Bugzilla would be in order. I would think a user would expect a much more sane option to select the day/month and let the

Of course, one can currently set the accounting period for the OS user at Preferences->Accounting Period. ALthough not the same as per-book settings, it is nonetheless a useful option for many. On 9/4/2019 8:08 PM, Christopher Lam wrote: FWIW in the 4.x series it is planned to allow a

Adrien, one thing that would help in Australia is in the setup to be able to set the year start as 1 July, & end as 30 June. Currently the only options are the beginning of the year, monthly, quarterly, or absolute. I usually use absolute, resetting each year. regards, Doug On Wed, 4 Sep
