find returns quickly by filtering the returns that are listed
add tax returns
export the list in to Excel to help with reviewing.
Viewing all clients & single clients
To view tax returns, click Tax on the top menu bar, and click Compliance list.
To see tax returns for all your clients, select All clients on the sidebar.
To see tax returns for one client only, select a client on the sidebar.
Finding a tax return
From the single client view, you can filter the tax return by period and tax return type.
From the All clients view, you can use filters to search by a particular client, period, and type of tax return, and other options:
To show only clients assigned to a particular staff member, select the staff member from the Staff member drop-down. If you use MYOB AE/AO, you manage assigned staff from your client's Responsibility tab in AE/AO. If you’re using MYOB Practice without having previously migrated from AE/AO, you can’t assign staff as partners or managers, so all staff will appear as Team member in the filter.
If you use MYOB AE/AO, to show only clients assigned to a particular partner, select the partner from the Partner drop-down. You manage assigned partners from your client's Responsibility tab in AE/AO.
If you use MYOB AE/AO, to show only clients belonging to a particular family group, select the family group from the Family group drop-down. You set up and manage family groups from your client's Family group tab in AE/AO.
To clear all filters, select Reset.

Adding a return
If you have a return for the previous year, a return with a Not started status is automatically created. You can roll over data from the previous year's return.
If you don't have an automatically created return for the new year, you can add a tax return. This will also roll over data from the previous year's return if there already is a return in MYOB Practice. Otherwise, you can manually complete the return.
If you run into trouble while adding a return, see the tips for adding a return.
Export to a spreadsheet
You can export the Compliance list data to Excel, which can be useful while reviewing and approving a tax return.
