Support for GST and BAS queries
- Human Edge staff can provide SAS2000 BAS support where the assistance is limited to how
the SAS2000 program processes the chosen GST transaction, how the SAS2000 program
calculates GST and how the software produces the BAS.
- Human Edge is not in a position to advise on Taxation law, such as whether a transaction
is GST free or taxable, and / or whether it is an allowable tax deduction. - Human Edge staff will not prepare a BAS form on behalf of any client, nor provide any advice
about how to do this, nor offer advice about a BAS provision. - All queries relating to taxation advice should be directed to a Registered Tax Agent
