Straight forward tracking of tax and GST
QuickBooks contains an intuitive and accurate tax tracking system for day-to-day transactions, tax and BAS reporting.
Tax Items are linked to Tax Codes so you can’t accidentally assign the wrong sales or purchase tax code.
Payroll enhancements
• A new Payroll Setup Wizard helps first-time users set up integrated payroll with clear and concise instructions.
• Employee records and payroll transactions are centralised and at your fingertips in the Payroll Centre. Also customise the employee list to suit your requirements.
• A new Scheduled Payroll Wizard makes payroll processing convenient and trouble free. Group employees in the way that suits you, and set group attributes to simplify processing.
• Edit or void past payroll payments avoiding the need to recalculate entire pay cheques, with inbuilt security safeguards and information messages. For example, when changing actual payroll hours and items pay work in either Lock Net Pay or Unlock Net Pay mode.
• The new Enter Payroll Information window provides an overall view of the payroll process. Enter the hours for all employees in a single window to simpify payroll.
• QuickBooks has an enhanced superannuation module with more calculation options, including storage of multiple super fund details for all existing and past super accounts.
Automatically track inventory items in different units of measure
You may buy the same item in one unit of measure, stock it in another, and sell it in yet another. QuickBooks automates the conversion from one unit of measure to another as the item moves through your business, helping avoid costly mistakes. Now, you can buy and sell products in precisely the way your suppliers and customers prefer.
Batch printing and emailing of forms
Batch printing or emailing your business forms increases business efficiency. Set a Preferred Send Method (email or print) for all forms you send to specific customers, suppliers and employees.
Improved features for working with your accountant
The Accountant’s copy of your company data file streamlines the way you work, with new features including:

• Expanded areas that you and your accountant can work in while the Accountant’s copy is active;
• Review, accept or reject changes from your accountant as a batch, or individually; and
• Receive notes and instructions from your accountant inside the Accountant’s copy.

Customise and re-size displays and the appearance of your desktop
QuickBooks now works even harder for you as you can customise and re-size displays, reports and workflows. The company desktop can also be customised by each user. You can customise colour and content, and arrange toolbars and icons to suit the way you work.
An ‘always on’ Audit Trail
The ‘always on’ Audit Trail makes it easier for your accountant to spot possible trouble spots or mis-postings in your accounts.
QuickBooks Google Desktop Search
QuickBooks Google Desktop Search now indexes your entire data file making it much easier to find exactly what you’re looking for.
