In preparing to use MYOB for doing your accounts and helping you to manage GST related tasks, you may have imported your company file from your accountant. It may already have a Tax Code List with the old tax codes. You may get a file from MYOB to import into your company file to add all the GST tax codes matching those from the Customs. If you try to first delete the old tax code list, you may not succeed because some of the tax codes may already be linked to some accounts.
Instead of deleting the whole list, open that old tax code list and delete tax codes one by one instead. Click on the arrow to the right of a tax code to open the Tax Code Information, click EDIT at the top horizontal menu bar, then click DELETE TAX CODE. You will be informed if that tax code cannot be deleted becausee it is used for same transaction already in which case just leave it alone. Just delete all the tax codes that can be deleted.
If you do not yet have a suitable tax list file to import after the above is done, MYOB would have provided a trial company file, clearwtr.myo. Open this file and at the top horizontal menu bar, select LISTS:
Menu bar > Lists > Tax Codes
After opening the tax code list, go to the top horizontal menu, select FILE
Menu bar > File > Export Data > Tax Code List
Save the file as Non-consolidated Codes in a folder from which you can remember to import from. Now to import this file into your company file.
With the company file open, go to the top horizontal menu bar, select IMPORT DATA
Menu bar > Import Data > Tax Code List > Non-consolidated Data > Select the exported file from folder > Match All > Import
