Accountants keen to implement SBR

This Tuesday, I presented to around 100 accountants at the CPA Congress in Victoria, talking about how SBR will streamline business processes. The group was interested in how they should implement SBR in their businesses.  The presentation covered the benefits SBR offered in the preparation of reports for government – especially the ability to pre-fill much of the information directly from their accounting or financial systems. 

I was very happy to be able to tell the group that the government side of SBR was ready to accept SBR lodgments and that the number of SBR-enabled products continues to grow, with the full list available at: www.sbr.gov.au/About_SBR/Products_available.aspx 

The best way to get ready to use SBR is to ask your software provider about their plans to SBR-enable your products and register for an AUSkey at www.abr.gov.au/auskey

It was a very positive and productive exchange.
