Your tax codes are tiny data points that make a massive difference to profitability. If your myob gst codes are wrong, every progress claim, supplier invoice and cash-flow forecast can be off by 10 % or more. CountBricks eliminates that risk by embedding correct GST coding directly into our AI-generated estimates, then pushing the data straight into MYOB for hassle-free reconciliation.
• Manual re-keying of GST codes for hundreds of material lines after exporting from estimating software
• Conflicting GST rates between purchase orders and subcontractor invoices
• Inconsistent job cost reports caused by “N-T” (No Tax) lines that should be coded “GST”
• Time-consuming end-of-quarter adjustments with the accountant
CountBricks listens to your site meeting, converts the conversation into a full bill of quantities and instantly applies the correct myob gst codes to every material, labour and subcontract line. You walk off site with:
• A detailed estimate aligned to current supplier pricing
• GST-accurate purchase orders ready to email
• An invoice schedule that balances GST on progress claims
1. Your voice draft is transcribed by CountBricks AI.
2. Our material library contains pre-mapped GST attributes (e.g. “GST” for most items, “N-T” for educational exemptions, “FRE” for exports).
3. When you confirm the scope, CountBricks assigns the matching myob gst codes to each line.
4. On export, the native MYOB API receives perfectly formatted coding, job numbers and cost centres.
• GST (10 %): Most labour, new materials, subcontractor work and design fees.
• N-T (No tax): Insurance recoveries, bond transfers or owner-supplied items.
• FRE (GST-free): Second-hand materials where margin scheme applies or exports.
• GST Input Taxed: Residential rent collected while projects are held before sale.
Pro tip: If you are delivering a mix of GST-free and taxable work (e.g. a granny flat for a primary residence), CountBricks can split codes at individual task level so your BAS stays razor-accurate.

• BAS lodgement figures generated in two clicks
• Reduced errors flagged by bookkeepers
• Faster funding approvals from banks that review GST accuracy
Scenario 1: Demolition disposal fees
Usually GST (10 %) because tipping fees are taxable. CountBricks tags these automatically.
Scenario 2: Owner-supplied appliances
N-T so you do not collect GST on items outside your supply chain. CountBricks marks the lines “No Tax” and highlights them in your client quote for transparency.
Scenario 3: Council building application fees
FRE when the authority does not charge GST. CountBricks applies “FRE” and records the memo for audit trail.
ATO compliance is easier when every transaction is backed by a digital source. CountBricks stores the voice transcript, estimate revision history and GST code on the same record. If the auditor calls, export a single ZIP file and you are done.
GST coding is only one piece. CountBricks also:
• Syncs job numbers and cost codes with MYOB job tracking
• Reconciles supplier invoices via PDF extraction
• Pushes payment claims to CountBricks.com/portal so clients can pay online

When Riverstone Developments approached CountBricks for a 12-townhouse project, their biggest headache was reconciling mixed GST treatments—some lots sold as turnkey homes (GST payable), others retained for rent (input-taxed). Previous software forced them to duplicate estimates just to change codes, burning days of admin time.
1. We imported their existing MYOB chart and customised the myob gst codes inside CountBricks.
2. Using voice-to-estimate, the site manager listed every task—from bulk earthworks to landscaping—while walking the block. CountBricks applied GST codes in real time.
3. The finance team used the CountBricks Split-Scope tool to tag rental lots “GST Input Taxed” and sales lots “GST”.
• 430 line items coded with 100 % accuracy in under 15 minutes
• End-of-quarter BAS lodged two days faster because no manual adjustments were needed
• $8,700 saved in bookkeeping fees across the project
• Build GST logic into your estimating workflow, not after the fact
• Use separate cost centres for taxable and input-taxed components to keep profit reports clear
• Keep voice transcripts as supporting evidence—CountBricks stores them automatically
