Practice non-transaction data preferences

There are three relationship types that are used to identify the signatories on the declaration report:

directors for companies and trusts
partners for partnerships
trustees for trusts that do not have directors.

Practices that use the Adding associations to existing contacts feature in MYOB AE/AO to track the relationships between clients and partners, directors and trustees can choose to nominate the association types that represent these three relationships. For those clients with associations configured on the Associated tab tab, the partners, directors and trustees will automatically be added to the corresponding data category in the client’s non-transaction data.

Non-transaction data preferences relies on the associations created on the Associated tab in MYOB AE/AO. Therefore, the non-transaction data preferences should only be set, if the Associate feature in MYOB AE/AO is used. See information on the Adding associations to existing contacts.

The non-transaction data preferences are configured on the Practice Report Settings tab.
