Please note all new ideas remain hidden from public view until reviewed by our team.
Announcement: September 2023 We are currently well underway building our next-gen user interfaces, starting with Payroll web and mobile (released), Invoices mobile (released) and soon, advanced Payroll, Reckon Mate enhancements, and Time web. Where appropriate we'll add features from the Product Ideas Portal to both old and new interfaces, or, where new is replacing old, we'll add to the new range only. Thank you for your patience - whilst we understand building new interfaces and products takes longer than adding a feature, we are certain the new designs will ultimately provide a better experience for all our customers. |
Hi Rod. This feature is unavailable in a lot of products in our competitor space, especially in regards to the ability to assign a negative amount to a purchase tax code vs the positive amount assigned to a sales tax code. The good news is, we have just undertaken a review of this requirement, and with a bit of backend tweaking we believe we can achieve the right outcomes to suit everyone, which includes mixed tax type transactions - very important to property rentals, agriculture and RCTIs. We should have some good news soon on a pending release.
Negative line items is definitely needed on an invoice. I wish I had found this post earlier - I am sure a lot more people would have voted or commented also if they new it existed. This is such a common feature, I don't understand why it is not available in reckon one.
I run an en electrical contracting business, and when providing customers with estimates / invoices for solar installations, I need to list the value of the government's solar rebate, which I minus from the total cost.
So allowing a separate line item which can have a minus value, is really important for my business.
In fact it is a requirement for "Approved Solar Retailers", associated with the "Clean Energy Council" (where we solar contractors, sign a "code of conduct", stating that we will provide customers with an itemised estimates / invoices, listing the dollar value of government's solar rebate.
At the moment I have to list it in the "Notes" section on the Reckon One estimate, but it has a 1000 character limit, which limits what I can write in the "Notes" section.
We require negative entries on invoices for variations to quoted work. Very important to us.
I'd like this too but also to apply to estimates, not having this features slows me down too much compared to just using excel.
