I am doing books for a sole trader who originally was not registered for GST. He now has to register for GST from 20/5/2025. I have gone into Settings, Tax Settings, General and have answered Yes to "Are you registered for GST?". I was expecting that I would have to enter the date that he registered from but there is no option for that??? Am I missing something or do I just have to remember the date manually and only go back and add gst to the invoices from that date?

    The client has gone 3 months creating invoices without GST?

    Yes because they missed when they went over the $75000 so we have to lodge a backdated BAS.

    Regardless of whether they have to backdate it or register it from today, why is there no date of GST registration in Reckon One?

    I can't answer that but even if there were a place for it, it wouldn't go back and automatically make changes to invoices already created, that would be crazy.

    I'd say you'll need to go back and edit them.

    I wasn't expecting that Reckon would automatically update the invoices, but I was expecting that I would have to enter the date that he registers for GST? I am going to manually update the invoices myself. I have lodged his BAS but I worked it out in a spreadsheet first to get the figures quickly rather than wait to update the invoices then run the BAS report.
