For · Australian Small Business
An invoice app for Australian small business.
Sole traders, partnerships, Pty Ltd companies, consultants, agencies - if the ATO sees you as a small business and the BAS arrives quarterly, VioBusiness is built for the way you actually invoice. ABN-aware. GST-compliant tax invoices. BAS-ready CSV. AUD $29.99 once.
What an Australian small business needs.
Tax invoices that satisfy ATO requirements (the "Tax Invoice" label, ABN, GST itemised). Multi-currency for overseas clients. Recurring invoices for retainer customers. BAS-ready records. AUD $29.99 once - no AUD $35-100/month bill arriving every fortnight.
i.What VioBusiness gives you
- Valid Tax Invoice format. "Tax Invoice" label, ABN, date, description, GST amount, totals - all included by default when you set a GST rate. See our tax invoice guide.
- GST handling. 10% as default; 0% for exports and GST-free supplies; per-invoice override.
- Multi-currency. Bill US/UK/NZ/Asian clients in their currency. Records preserved in original.
- Buyer ABN field on customer records (required for B2B invoices over AUD $1,000).
- Quote-to-invoice conversion in one tap. Useful when you've quoted up front and need to bill on completion.
- Recurring invoices. Monthly retainers issue themselves.
- Expenses with receipt photos. Evidence for input tax credit claims on BAS.
- CSV export. Hand to your BAS agent or import into Xero/MYOB.
ii.Sole trader, partnership, Pty Ltd, or trust
- Sole trader: Use your personal name in Business Profile and your ABN. Most common structure.
- Partnership: Use the partnership name and ABN.
- Pty Ltd: Use the company name, ACN, and ABN. VioBusiness has space for all three on the invoice.
- Trust (with corporate trustee): Use the trust name as the trading entity. VioBusiness's flexible business name field accommodates this.
iii.BAS preparation, simplified
Every BAS quarter, the workflow:
- In VioBusiness, export invoices for the quarter as CSV. Sum totals = G1 (total sales). Identify GST-free invoices = G2/G3.
- Export expenses for the quarter. Sum GST amounts = 1B (GST credits).
- Send both CSVs to your BAS agent, or use them to fill in the BAS yourself via the ATO portal.
- Pay any amount owing (or wait for the refund).
See our BAS record-keeping guide for the full process.

v.Frequently asked
Do I need to register for GST?
Only if your turnover crosses AUD $75,000/year (AUD $150,000 for non-profits). Below that, you can leave GST at 0% in VioBusiness and your invoices print without GST lines. Above that, set 10% as default.
Does it work with Xero or MYOB?
Indirectly. VioBusiness exports CSV; Xero and MYOB accept CSV imports. Your bookkeeper or BAS agent does the formal books in their tool of choice. See our Xero alternative and MYOB alternative pages.
What about Single Touch Payroll?
VioBusiness doesn't do payroll. For employees and STP obligations, use a dedicated payroll tool (KeyPay, Xero Payroll, Employment Hero). VioBusiness covers invoicing and expenses.
Can I bill NZ clients in NZD?
Yes. Set the invoice currency to NZD. Exports to non-Australian customers are typically GST-free; set GST to 0%.
