GST Software upgrade FAQs:
1) Must I update my accounting software?
Some of the accounting software (e.g. Autocount, SQL, etc) will link the amended Tax code (SR-0) to form GST-03 directly. There is a risk that the software will malfunction if it was not updated.
Some of the accounting software (e.g. Xero, quickbook, etc) are cloud accounting software, they will automatically update to newest version. Therefore, you don’t need to update it yourself.
2) Where I shall go to download updated software?
We advise you to consult with your software vendor. You may refer to the software vendor contact below if you don’t have a trusted software vendor.
3) Will there any additional charges for software update?
Yes, most of the software vendor will charges for the update. However, the update will be free if you has signed maintenance contract with those software vendor. We suggest you to sign one year maintenance contract with those software vendor as our government estimated to implement SST on September 2018, so you don’t need to pay again during that time.
4) Can I choose not to update the software, and add in the new Tax code (SR-0) into the system myself?
It’s depend on what software you are using now, some of the software (e.g. Xero can add in new Tax code directly), but some of the software (e.g. Autocount or SQL) request you to update the software to avoid software malfunction.
