»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp

»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp Simple Statement was introduced in August 2006.

In the period November 1996 to March 1997, a Brought Forward statement layout was used. For more information about the Brought Forward statement see subject ‘Transactions on Brought Forward Statements� (SAM132010).

From April 1997, the style of the statement changed to an Open Item layout. This layout is still used where a Simple Statement cannot be produced or the taxpayer requests this style. It is also the layout used to display all statements in function VIEW STATEMENT and manually produced statements using the SEES Statement facility. For more information about the Open Item statement see subject ‘Transactions on Open Item Statements� (SAM132020).

»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp Simple Statement only shows the changes to the SA account since the last statement was issued.

»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp first line of the statement shows the amount brought forward from the previous statement. »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp amount is shown in the balance column (followed by the suffix ‘CRâ€� if a credit).

»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp changes to the account are then shown. »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp amount is shown in the ‘Tax Dueâ€� column if a debit, and the ‘Creditsâ€� column if a credit. Where there are several debit transactions for the same date these are grouped together and sub-totalled. Similarly if there are several credits for the same date these are also grouped together and sub-totalled.

Where the statement requires two or more pages, the last entry on the previous page is ‘Carried forward to next pageâ€� with the amount shown in the balance column. »Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp first entry on the continuation page(s) is ‘Balance brought forward from previous pageâ€�, again with the amount in the Balance column.

»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp final line of the statement shows the description ‘Amount to payâ€� followed by the account balance (followed by the suffix ‘CRâ€� if a credit).

After the last entry on the 1st page, and before the payslip where printed, a summary box is displayed. This shows the overall account balance and where there are amounts outstanding and/or shortly becoming due provides a summarised breakdown of the amounts to be paid.

»Ê¹ÚÌåÓýapp transaction descriptions used on the Simple Statements are divided into 5 categories

• Charges (SAM132050)
• Payment credits (SAM132051)
• Payment debits (SAM132052)
• Adjustments and amendments (SAM132053)
• Miscellaneous descriptions (SAM132054)
