How to make one supplier to be always gst free

Hi, I might actually have more than one, but this one in particular, I found on a google search instructions how to do it in Reckon One, but following that into the supplier, there was nothing there about tax or gst. This is the instruction -

Is there another way to do it? Otherwise everyone is at risk of claiming GST from purchases when they should not, because it calculates automatically and if one forgets to override that, you have GST being claimed. The ATO wouldn't like that. We have one supplier who too small to have to register for GST and many Govt. things, don't have or have GST on only part of it.

I agree that in Reckon One there is no such field in the Supplier details panel, although there is a place for ABN and an ABN check (a behind-the-scenes lookup at the ABR).

If that returns an exclamation mark (!), then they are not registered for GST.

But it is always a good idea to check every invoice for GST, the absence of an ABN and/or GST.

Thank you for the reply. I don't bother entering much details about suppliers, not even the ABN, usually just their name and I used to check their tax status, (in Reckon Desktop) but as I am about to move to Reckon One, it seems to leave it wide open to claim GST (even unknowingly) on every purchase. I can't make the product GST free because this particular one is normally a GSTable product, just that this supplier isn't registered.

Hi @Jean_10862158

Unfortunately, the ability to set a specific supplier to be GST-free in this way isn't available in Reckon One at this stage. I think the Google AI response in your opening post may have had its wires crossed a bit there so apologies for the confusion.

Thanks Rav, I am finding that happens quite a lot. Ask google for where to find something on various softwares, and the path it gives doesn't match.
