    • Rabobank Direct Credit Export

      Rabobank Direct Credit Export

      In July 2020 Rabobank tightened their online banking security measures, which resulted in some of our users struggling to import the direct credit file from Cashmanager RURAL into their Rabobank account.

      The default file extension .aba is no longer accepted by Rabobank. But by changing the file extension when you export the file, you'll be able to import it into your bank account.

      Simply follow the instructions below:

      How to change the file extension in Cashmanager RURAL

      1. Click on Export - Direct Credits as you normally do.

      2. Click into the File field and change the extension to .txt

      3. Click OK to save the file.

      4. Locate the file and import it into Rabobank as you normally do.

      What if I've already exported the file?

      1. Locate the file on your computer.

      2. Right click on the file name and select Properties.

      3. In the General tab, remove the extension .aba and replace it with .txt

      4. Click OK.

      5. Import the file into Rabobank as you normally do.

      NOTE: you may see the following message when changing the file extension. Click Yes to continue.

    • Payday Filing and Single Touch Payroll in Cashmanager RURAL online

      Payday Filing and Single Touch Payroll in Cashmanager RURAL online

      As legislative requirements become increasingly complex we believe the simple wagebook in Cashmanager RURAL may not meet your employer obligations in the future.

      For this reason, we have made the decision not to update the wagebook to create returns for the following:

      • Payday filing with IRD - (NZ)
      • STP with ATO - (AUS)

      Instead, we believe this is best left to specialist payroll providers such as PaySauce and Smart Payroll (NZ employers only).

      We strongly recommend that you talk with your accounting specialist to determine the best payroll product for your business.

    • How to record the Fonterra balancing retro in your plan

      How to record the Fonterra balancing retro in your plan

      In early December 2018, Fonterra announced the new Advance Rate Schedule that saw the December '18 base Advance Rate set at $4.00, down from the previous rate of $4.15.

      Simply put, this means that farmers will be paid $4.00 for all milk solids supplied in the month of December 2018, less a deduction of 15 cents on all of their milk solids supplied between June-November inclusive that have been paid at the $4.15 level.

      We've suggested a couple of options below on how you could display this correctly in your working or draft plans

      Option 1 (recommended)

      Using the extended code Last Season's (LS) open a worksheet with a payment date of January 2019 in your working or draft plan.

      Enter the total kg/MS that was produced between Jun to Nov in January e.g. 52,000 x .15 = -$7,950.00

      Once January has finished, remove the amount you calculated for January from your plan.

      Option 2

      In the Dairy Forecaster, change the Base Adv Rate for supply months September - November from $4.15 to $4.00.

      Everything will come out in the wash when the milk solids provided for the season to date are retrospectively paid in February.

      Option 3

      Create a new extended code under Milk Production for the Balancing Retro.
      Make sure you set the code type to Expense.

      Using the new extended code, open a worksheet with a payment date of January 2019 in your working or draft plan.

      Enter the total kg/MS that was produced between Jun to Nov in January e.g. 52,000 x .15 = -$7,950.00

      Finally, using the same extended code, enter the same amount as a credit in February.

    • Fuel excise duty rebates

      Fuel excise duty rebates

      What is fuel excise duty?

      Excise duty is applied to all petrol sold in New Zealand and is collected to help fund safety upgrades, public transport, walking and cycling projects and regional roads.

      If you buy and use petrol off-road within your business (for example, for use in your quad bike) you may be in for a fuel excise refund.

      For more information, click on the links at the bottom of this article.

      Does the refund include GST?

      Rebates that you receive as a shareholder from Farmlands, Ravensdown, Ballance etc don't generally include GST (but it's always best to check with your accountant).

      On the other hand, your Excise Duty refund is subject to GST and any refunds received should be included in the GST period it relates to.

      How should I record it in Cashmanager?

      When it comes to coding the transaction, we recommend that you create a new extended code within your Other Farm Income category specifically for excise fuel refunds.

      In the Transactions screen, click on the Setup - Codes menu.

      1. Highlight the Category code, Other Farm Income (OF).

      2. Under the 'New' area, click on Extended Code.

      3. Enter a Code and Description that make sense to you.

      4. Set the GST to B (Business).

      5. Set the Type to Income.

      6. Click OK to save the changes.

      additional backups necessary to quickly, accurately, and independently replace any of your
      data that is lost or damaged for any reason. If your data is deleted or has become corrupted
      CRS Software Ltd may, at its complete discretion, use its reasonable endeavours to recover
      the data but does not guarantee a successful result. In this situation, reverting to the most
      recent backup may be required. CRS Software Ltd is not liable for any costs that you incur
      because data has to be re-entered or is lost or corrupted.

      4.4 Retention of backups. If you are no longer entitled to receive Support Services (for
      example, because your annual License has lapsed) CRS Software Ltd is not required to retain
      your backups in the archive.

      apply unless the context requires otherwise:

      • “Account Data” means any information, data or files that any Authorised User inputs or uploads to the Online

        Services.

        that website that we notify you of.

      2. These terms apply to Account Owners and Authorised Users
      Some of these terms apply to either Account Owners or Authorised Users only, and the rest of these terms apply to
      both. If you are not an Account Owner or Authorised User then you are not permitted to use the Services or
      Applications. To avoid doubt, you could be both an Account Owner and Authorised User for the purposes of these
      terms.

      3. Support Terms
      By agreeing to these terms you also agree to the Support Terms which form part of this Agreement between you and
      us. If there is any conflict between the Support Terms and these terms, these terms take priority.

      4. Your right to use the Services if you are an Account Owner
      This section 4 applies if you are an Account Owner.

      So long as your subscription is current and you comply with these terms, we grant you the right for Authorised Users
      to access and use the Services for your own lawful internal business purposes in the manner we make those
      Services available from time to time.

      This right is not exclusive to you and cannot be transferred by you to anyone else. This right is limited by these terms
      (including our rights to end the Services or this Agreement) and any notices and limitations so advised.
      Except for the right set out above, you are not granted any other rights in relation to the Services.

      us pursuant to these terms.

      5. Your right to use the Services if you are an Authorised User
      a. Individual Authorised User: This section 5.a applies if you are an Individually Authorised User

      comply with these terms, we grant you the right to access and use the Services for the lawful internal
      business purposes of the Account Owner only, in the manner we make those Services available from time to
      time.

      This right is not exclusive to you and cannot be transferred by you to anyone else. This right is limited by
      these terms (including our rights to end the Services or this agreement) and any notices and limitations so
      advised.

      Except for the right set out above, you are not granted any other rights in relation to the Services.

      So long as the Account Owner’s subscription is current, their Agreement with us and your employment with
      your Company has not ended and you comply with these terms, we grant you the right to access and use
      the Services for the lawful internal business purposes of the Account Owner only, in the manner we make
      those Services available from time to time.

      In the event your employment with your Company is terminated or if your role within your Company changes
      that does not require access to the Services, your right to access and use the Services and authority to bind
      your Company to this Agreement ceases immediately. The Company will not be liable for any losses,
      expenses, damages, liabilities and costs arising out of or in connection to your unauthorised access to and
      use of the Services after the cessation of your employment with the Company and you will be personally
      liable for any losses, expenses, damages, liabilities and costs suffered or incurred as a result of or related to
      any your unauthorised access and/or use of the Services.

      This right is not exclusive to you and cannot be transferred by you to anyone else. This right is limited by
      these terms (including our rights to end the Services or this agreement) and any notices and limitations so
      advised.

      Your right of access to the Services is subject to the strict supervision of CRS Software and your Company.
      You acknowledge and agree that CRS Software may regularly disclose your personal information and
      information about your access to the Services to your Company.

      Any suspicious or unlawful use of the Services is strictly prohibited, will be immediately reported to your
      Company and your access to the Services will be immediately revoked.

      Except for the right set out above, you are not granted any other rights in relation to the Services.

      6. Your right to use the CRS Application
      Your use of the Online Services is dependent on the proper use of the CRS Application and Third Party Applications.
      Please note that the CRS Application requires an active connection to the Internet to operate properly. If you lose
      that connection, or it is otherwise unsatisfactory, you will be prevented from properly using the CRS Application.

      So long as you comply with these terms we grant you the right to install and use the object code version of the CRS
      Application in conjunction with the Online Services, for the lawful internal business purposes of the Account Owner
      only during the term of their subscription to the Services, and in accordance with these terms. You are not granted
      any other rights in relation to the CRS Application. This right is not exclusive to you and cannot be transferred by you
      to anyone else. This right is limited by these terms (including our rights to end the Services or this Agreement) and
      any notices and limitations so advised.

      You must:

      • not hire out, license, lease, lend, distribute, resell, sell on, sublicense, make subject to a security interest, or
        otherwise transfer, provide or make available to any person all or any portion of the CRS Application (including
        any previous Releases);

      • not modify, copy, create works based on, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or otherwise attempt to
        discover the source code of all or any portion of the CRS Application except to the extent expressly permitted by
        applicable law; and

      • comply with all of our directions in relation to the CRS Application.
        This section 6 does not apply to any Third Party Applications (see section 7 below).

      7. Third Party Applications have their own terms
      We do not licence the Third Party Applications to you as they are subject to their own terms and conditions. These
      terms and conditions either accompany the Third Party Applications (for example, any end user license agreement
      you are presented with as part of the installation process) or we will notify you of them. You agree to comply with all
      such terms and conditions.

      The CRS Application contains TurboPower Abbrevia, which is a Third Party Application. TurboPower Abbrevia is
      subject to the Mozilla Public License Version 1.1 (“MPL”). The source code of TurboPower Abbrevia is available at
      http://sourceforge.net under the terms of the MPL. The MPL may be read at http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/. CRS
      Software has not modified the TurboPower software. The terms of this Agreement (including the warranty, support,
      and liability obligations) are offered by CRS Software alone.

      1. Account Data
        We do not own Account Data. So, you grant to us and our suppliers and contractors the right to use, modify and copy
        Account Data solely for the purpose of providing the Services and otherwise in relation to these terms.
        While we endeavour to keep Account Data secure we do not promise that it is completely secure or recoverable or
        will never be lost or damaged.

      If you are the Account Owner and this Agreement ends, or you cease to subscribe to the Service, we will provide you
      with a copy of the Account Data in a format that works with the then current version of the Online Services. We
      cannot guarantee, and do not promise, that any copy of Account Data will work with any other versions of the Online
      Services.

      We will keep Account Data for at least 3 months after the end of this Agreement or any of the Services. At the end of
      that 3 month period we may delete the Account Data.

      If the Account Owner has supplied to us Account Data on behalf of a third party and that third party is the owner of the
      Account Data then we reserve the right to release that Account Data to the third party notwithstanding any objections
      by the Account Owner.

      9. Your responsibilities
      It is your responsibility to:

      • if you are the Account Owner, pay all of the relevant subscription and other charges related to the Services at the
        times and in the way specified;

      • make sure you access and use the Services and Applications in a reasonable and proper manner and never in a
        way that breaks any laws or regulations or infringes our or anyone else’s rights;

      • comply with all our directions and restrictions regarding the use of the Services;

      • make sure your use of the Services and Applications, and anything you do or control, never impairs CRS
        Software Technology or the use of the Services or Applications by our other customers;

      • never attempt to undermine the security or integrity of CRS Software Technology, circumvent any restrictions we
        place on your use of the Services or Applications, or obtain access to any part of CRS Software Technology that
        we have not expressly given you permission to access;

      • make sure all user ID, codes and passwords are kept confidential and secure and are properly used (and
        immediately tell us whenever you have reason to believe that this hasn’t happened or there has been any breach
        of security);

      • make sure that Account Data that you input or upload is free of anything illegal or offensive, any viruses and
        anything else that could have a detrimental affect on us or CRS Software Technology; and

      • install each Release as soon as is reasonably possible;

      10. Disclaimers
      As part of the Online Services certain pre-coded transactions may be made available to you. These transactions may
      not have been correctly coded and we are not liable in any way if that has happened. It is your responsibility, and not
      ours, to make sure that transactions are correctly coded.

      The Services and Applications are provided to you by us on an “as is” and “as available” basis, and your use of them
      is at your own risk. We do not promise that they will be secure, reliable, free of defects, errors or viruses or always
      available (including at a certain speed), or that all problems can or will be corrected. This is in part because of the
      reliance of the Online Services on software, systems and networks that are not owned or controlled by us.
      Sometimes the Services will be unavailable or your use will be limited because of maintenance or other work that is
      being undertaken.

      All express and implied warranties, representations and conditions in relation to the Services and Applications are
      excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law, including any warranties as to non-infringement, satisfactory quality or
      fitness for a particular purpose.

      You represent to us that your access and use of the Services and Applications is for the purposes of a business and
      so you agree that the guarantees and remedies provided in the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 do not apply to the
      Services, CRS Application or this Agreement.

      If you use the Services in Australia, then despite any other provision of this Agreement, where any Australian Act
      implies any term into this Agreement, and that Act avoids or prohibits provisions in a contract excluding or modifying
      such term, that term shall be deemed to be included in this Agreement, but our liability for breach of that term shall be
      limited in one or more of the ways (at our option) permitted by section 68A(1) of the Trade Practices Act 1974 (Cth).

      We are not your accountant and the Services and Applications are not a substitute for getting professional accounting
      advice.

      11. Changes to the Services and fees

      We may, at our sole discretion, delete, replace, add to or otherwise amend the whole, or any part of, the Services or
      Applications at any time without notice to you.

      We may also, from time to time, change the fees we charge for the Services and/or Applications. If you are the
      Account Owner and don’t agree to the new fees you may within one month of the change in fees end your
      subscription by telling us in writing at least 5 days beforehand.

      12. These terms may change
      From time to time we may make changes to these terms. When this happens we will try to give you at least 5 days’
      notice in writing before any changes take effect (and we can do this by posting a notice on the Website) and/or you
      will be given the option of confirming your Agreement to a new version of the terms on the Website or as part of
      installing the CRS Application. If you have not already accepted the changes, any use by you of the Services or CRS
      Application after the new version of these terms has been posted on the Website confirms that you accept the
      changes. If you do not accept the changes then you are no longer permitted to use the Services or CRS Application.

      Any other changes to these terms must be in writing and signed by one of our authorised representatives.

      13. Our intellectual property
      We alone (and/or our providers where applicable) own and shall retain all rights, title and interest, including
      intellectual property rights, in CRS Software Technology and, as they are created, any changes or improvements to
      Technology made by or for us, you or anyone else. Your limited right to use CRS Software Technology is set out in
      sections 4, 5, 6 and/or 7 (as applicable).

      Our trademarks, logos and business, product and domain names are also owned by us alone and you are not
      granted any rights or interests in any of them.

      14. Our Confidential information
      You must keep confidential and secure all information that you receive from us that we tell you is confidential (for
      example, by a confidentiality notice in a document), that is by its nature confidential or is otherwise of a commercially
      sensitive nature. You may only disclose this information if you are required by law to do so.

      15. Restricting, suspending and ending the Services
      Either you or us may end the Services and/or this Agreement at any time for any reason by telling the other in writing
      at least 5 business days beforehand.

      We may end this Agreement and/or your use of any of the Services at any time without notice to you if breach any of
      these terms or any Authorised User or Account Owner (as applicable) breaches the terms of their Agreement with us.
      We may also immediately end, suspend, restrict, or monitor your access and use of the Services, Applications or
      Account Data at any time without notice to you if required by law or if we consider it necessary or desirable to do so
      to protect our proper interests or the interests of anyone else.

      Taking any of the steps above does not limit any other rights or remedies that may be available to us.

      Whenever and however the Services or this Agreement ends, if you are an Account Owner you still have to pay the
      fees for the month that you are in at the time the Services end.
      Any outstanding fees and amounts are due and payable by you on the date the Services end.

      Ending this Agreement or any of the Services ends any rights you have been granted under sections 4, 5, 6 and 7 but
      does not affect sections 1, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17 (which will continue to operate) or any rights or remedies that have
      accrued beforehand.

      16. Indemnity
      You fully indemnify us against (and must pay us at our request for) any losses, expenses, damages, liabilities and
      costs that we suffer or incur as a result of or related to any use of the Services, or anything you do or do not do
      (including any breach by you of these terms), including any expenses we incur in exercising whatever rights we may
      have against you.

      17. Liability
      We, and our suppliers, contractors, directors, employees and agents (“Our Personnel”), will not be liable to you or
      any third party for any loss or damage to information or data (including Account Data), breach of security or privacy,
      loss of profit, revenue, opportunity or saving, failure in the supply of the Services or Applications, or any incidental,
      indirect, special or consequential loss or damage, no matter how the loss or damage was caused.

      If we or Our Personnel are liable to you for any reason, and for any reason we have not been able to exclude that
      liability under these terms, then the maximum aggregate liability of us and Our Personnel (together) to you for all
      things that we or Our Personnel have done or not done (including any breach of these terms) will under no
      circumstances exceed the value of the subscription fees paid by the Account Owner to us in the 12 months prior to
      the time that any liability first arises.

      The maximum aggregate liability above, and any exclusions or disclaimers of liability in these terms, shall apply
      however liability arises, whether in contract, in tort (including negligence), for breach of statutory duty or otherwise.

      18. General
      In these terms, words in the singular include the plural and vice versa; any examples in these terms, and references
      to “including” and similar words, are illustrative only and do not imply any limitations; and clause and other headings
      are for ease of reading only and do not affect the interpretation of these terms.

      You may subcontract, transfer or assign any of your rights or obligations under these terms with our prior written
      consent. We may subcontract, transfer or assign all or any part of our rights or obligations under these terms.

    • Cashmanager RURAL online support terms

      Cashmanager RURAL online support terms

      These Support Terms apply to the Cashmanager RURAL ONLINE and Cashmanager CRT ONLINE services
      (called the “Online Services”), and form part of the Terms of Use that you agreed to as part of your
      registration for the ONLINE Services and installation of the Online application.

      You are entitled to receive the services set out in these Support Terms (“Support Services”) only if the
      database you wish to access has a current monthly subscription for the Online Services and you are listed as
      a Registered User of that database.

      1. Help desk service
      CRS Software will provide a help desk that you can ring or email to get general assistance with the routine use
      of the Online Service and for reporting problems with the Application. The help desk is available during these
      hours:
      Monday to Friday: 8:30am – 7:00pm
      (New Zealand time, but not on New Zealand public holidays.)

      2. Problem resolution service
      CRS Software will use its reasonable endeavours to resolve problems with the current version of the Online
      services that have been reported to the help desk and that prevent use of the ONLINE services substantially in
      accordance with the then current user manual released by CRS Software. The time that will be spent assisting
      you is at CRS Software’s discretion. CRS Software reserves the right to resolve a problem in any future
      Release (which, under the Terms of Use, means a new version, release, update, bug fix or modification to the
      ONLINE Services Application that we supply or make available to you).

      3. Conditions
      The Support Services are made available to you only if you are:

      (a) registered with CRS Software as a user of the Online Service and the monthly subscription for the
      services is current;

      (b) using a PC that is running Windows 7 or newer; and

      (c) using an internet connection with an upload speed of over 256 kilobytes per second & download speed
      of over 128 kilobytes per second

      4. Advice
      CRS Software is not in the business of giving tax, accounting, or farm management advice. In the event that
      CRS Software provides such advice, you should not rely on it and CRS Software accepts no liability if you do.

      5. Your assistance
      You must provide all of the access, facilities, information, cooperation and assistance that CRS Software may
      reasonably require to fulfil its obligations under the Agreement, including these Support Terms.

      6. No obligation to provide Support Services
      CRS Software is not obliged to provide you with Support Services if the problem you are experiencing is
      caused by damage, alteration or modification to the CRS Application (unless done by CRS Software), loss of
      your software programs or loss of data, any other person’s software (including Third Party Applications),
      product or services, or your negligence, misuse, or failure to comply with the Terms of Use, including these
      Support Terms.

      7. Additional charge
      CRS Software is entitled to charge an additional fee, at its then standard rates, for any services it provides to
      you that it is not required to provide under these Support Terms. For the avoidance of doubt, this section does
      not oblige CRS Software to provide any such services. All additional fees must be paid within 30 days of the
      date of the relevant invoice from CRS Software.

    • We're retiring Cashmanager RURAL desktop

      We're retiring Cashmanager RURAL desktop

      The team at CRS Software is committed to innovation.
      As we pursue this goal, we’re always looking for ways to enhance the product experience, improve quality and reliability, and help farmers achieve their goals.

      Since 2008, clients have changed the way they use Cashmanager RURAL, with the majority accessing it online.

      We want to make sure we prioritise delivering the best possible experience to our clients, which is why we’ve decided to now focus our efforts on our online products.

      Key dates you should know

      As we prepare to retire the desktop version, we have supplied information that will apply to your farm subscription.

      February 28, 2019
      If your subscription renewal date falls on or before February 28, 2019, your final annual activation code will be supplied (dependant on your subscription renewal date).

      You will not be issued a new activation code if your subscription renewal date falls after February 28, 2019.
      Instead, your farm subscription will expire on the subscription renewal date and move into a Read-Only state.

      You can still look at information and print reports, but you won't be able to add new or edit existing information.

      February 29, 2020
      Cashmanager RURAL desktop will no longer be available to use or be supported by our team.

      Sign up here

      To register online, click on the link above. Once you are registered, call our team on 0800 888 080 and we will take you through the next simple steps.

      Your chance to win

      Every month, the first 20 clients to transfer to Cashmanager RURAL online will be entered in the draw for a chance to win a $200 Farmers or Farmlands voucher.

      Why move to online?

      As technology progresses we, as a company are committed to keeping pace and setting the standard for innovation in farm financial software.

      90% of our clients are now enjoying the benefits of being online which include:

      • Automated bank feeds

      • Monthly Farmlands statement feed

      • Automatic price updates from major dairy companies

      • Scan and attached invoices to transactions

      • Your data is stored in the cloud, no more backups!

      The best thing about moving to online is you're not learning a whole new system. Once you have logged into your database, the look and feel of Cashmanager online is identical to your desktop version.

      Move to online simple

      Read how longtime Cashmanager RURAL user Ruth Smith made the move from desktop to online and hasn’t regretted it.

      Dairy farming near Sanson, in the Manawatu, Ruth has been a Cashmanager user for as long as she can remember, having been recommended the product by their accountant when they started out.

      “ANZ (bank) held an event about Cashmanager and showed us the online version. I thought ‘this is the way to go’ and so we did,” she explains.
      “With online you save time, everything is there and it’s simple. You download the bank statements and all you have to do is code the transactions. Basically, it’s just time-saving.”

      Ruth found it simple and straightforward to switch from desktop to online and figured out how to do it herself. “I never regretted it for a moment,” she says.
      “Online is quicker, easier and I’m more up-to-date with my accounts because of it. Now that I’ve discovered I can import my Farmlands statement too it’s even better – I just have to check the coding.”

    • Springclean your database

      Springclean your database

      To ensure the general health of your Cashmanager RURAL database, we recommend that you run a springclean at least once every GST period.

      Running a springclean is also a mandatory step when closing of a previous financial year.

      What does a springclean do?

      Running a regular springclean helps you to identify if there is anything wrong with your database that may affect reports such as the GST report or unbalance the Accountants Annual report .

    • RE: Quantity Entry

      Hi @hardgraft

      Apologies for the delay - we've been a bit tied up at Mystery Creek.

      The budget worksheet really works best as below so that the cash calculations are pulled into the cashflow.

      Quantity = number of ewes (or ha for crops/fert)
      Multiply by = dose per ewe (or tonnes/kg of fert, seed, kg of wool etc)
      Price = cost per dose (or $/T or kg)

      Variables is a tool that works in the cashflow screen to speed up data entry if you're working to this type of scenario and also allows for a change of ewe numbers or cropping area throughout the year.

      Variables are located in Setup - Variables.
      0_1529097430095_upload-e62fae5d-f855-4268-8d9c-1cac4d2f3587

      If you've set up variables, click on variables in a budget worksheet and select the code related to a specific variable.

      0_1529097933719_upload-d9f4624f-c374-4465-b9c6-0f02988e3296

      If you'd like training in this area, feel free to contact the support team on 0800 888 080 and one of the team can book in a session with you.

      Hi @mcdour

      Yes, it may depend on what you have selected to view.

      You may need to contact our helpdesk but in the meantime, you could check the following:

      • Have you selected Revision from the Cashflow Options screen?
      • Is the revision date, showing Actual data up to..., correct?

    • RE: Aussie GST Confusion

      Hi @Snirtus

      Thanks for your comment.

      NZ GST codes do differ from AUS codes. For example, NZ clients using Cashmanager would code a financial transaction like interest to GST type E (Exempt).

      I've sent your suggestion to our Development team to consider.

      Thanks,
