\* No silent guesses: anything the documents do not settle becomes a review point for the accountant.
\* Fewer chase emails: missing documents go on a list the client sees in the portal or phone app.
\* A standard .xlsx with no macros, laid out the way a reviewer expects.
\* Pay per return in Australian dollars, with A$99 free to start and no seat fees.

It takes the documents a client sends (bank statements, payment summaries, invoices, rental and share statements, prior returns) and returns a review-ready Excel workpaper. Each figure sits on its schedule, mapped to its ATO item, with a link back to the page of the document it came from.\n\nThe reviewer stays in charge. Anything the evidence does not settle is raised as a review point instead of being guessed, and missing documents go on a chase list the client can see in the portal or phone app. An assistant inside the workbook can post adjustments, reclassify expenses and close review points on request.\n\nIndividual and sole-trader returns are live; company, trust and partnership returns are in beta by invitation. BeforeMay does not lodge and gives no tax advice: a registered tax agent at the practice reviews and signs. Client documents are stored in Australia, and tax file, Medicare and licence numbers are removed before any AI processing.","image":"https://images.g2crowd.com/display-layer-screenshots/2090773/4633f86a-313c-48da-99f7-1eac82e91fce-3-workpaper-review-points.jpg","url":"https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2299500/beforemay","@id":"https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2299500/beforemay#software","@type":"SoftwareApplication","applicationCategory":"BusinessApplication","publisher":{"@id":"https://www.getapp.com.au/#organization"},"operatingSystem":"Cloud"},{"@id":"https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2299500/beforemay#breadcrumblist","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"name":"Home","position":1,"item":"/","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Tax Preparation Software","position":2,"item":"/directory/3852/tax-preparation/software","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"BeforeMay","position":3,"item":"/software/2299500/beforemay","@type":"ListItem"}]}]}
