MyTaxTables project generates MYOB tax tables

Ages ago I wrote a post here that whinged about MYOB charging a lot for a new version of the MYOB accounting software every year, just in order to get updates to the tax tables used for calculating PAYG income tax.

There’s been an ongoing chat between a few folk in the comment thread about how to solve this problem. And now there is an open source solution to the problem: MyTaxTables is a project on sourceforge that allow you to easily convert ATO tax tables into MYOB tax tables. The developers are looking for people to test the software, so get on over there and help them out. It looks like it only works on Windows at the moment.

Congrats to the team for putting the software together (whoever you are) and huge kudos to the community that made it happen!

  1. Wow - Nommi just forwarded this to me. What a great concept. I will certainly follow it up.

    Good to hear that you are having a great trip too.

  3. hey Al,

    Might save a few folk a few dollars and maybe wake up the MYOB people about providing value. Nobody likes feeling screwed, I guess.

    We’ve got a Margaret River visit in mind almost as soon as we get back (mid-Sept) so we can come down and catch up.

  11. Is anyone working on the accountedge version for Macintosh? If so please let me know where to find it.

    Would be happy to pay a reasonable amount. Certainly not what MYOB is charging.

    Miserable bastards. I used to really like them but this is plain mean.
