Ability to 'complete' or 'finalise' BAS without lodging it to the ATO.
I have a few cases where clients have setup an ATO connection to lodge their own BASs via Xero, which is great.
The problem I have is many clients only do monthly IAS (wages tax only), where we as agents do the full quarterly BASs, and prepare them via Xero's tax program XPM.
I however cannot mark a BAS as 'final' or 'complete', I can only save as draft or lodge it via Xero. I don't want to lodge it via Xero, I want to put it in XPM, so the client gets a copy to review, and sign it as proof of acceptance.
Please add an option to 'finalise' or 'complete' the BAS without lodging, like we can with payruns. This is essential as it gives the appearance of not doing the BAS (which we do), and more importantly - it's vital to make the unfiled amounts option work.
