company name change via ASIC then data update in CAS how to?

We had to change a company name in ASIC, however that company is in our CAS360 system and it's still showing up as the old company name.

I'm not 100% sure on how to change this correctly without interrupting the system where CAS might read that as having to do a proper name change form 205.(which is obviously not needed)

In CAS, the company is still also showing up as having a debt, however it has actually been paid I double checked on ASIC.

I tried a data download however that was rejected as well...

Not sure where to go from here.

Thanks

  Hi Sabine, 

  Thank you for reaching out in the Community. 

  It appears that CAS 360 has not yet fully synced with ASIC. Even though the company name was changed directly with ASIC, CAS 360 won’t update automatically until a successful RA71 data download goes through.

  If the download was rejected, it usually means the company isn’t properly authorised under your ASIC agent number or there’s an issue with the EDGE connection. That’s why CAS is still showing the old name and the debt, even though ASIC shows it’s been paid.

  You can enter the name change as normal by going to Add Name, selecting Change Company Name, entering the details, saving, then clicking Options, removing the pending status, entering the effective date, and saving again. This won't trigger a Form 205 Company Name Change - Form 205 / 409.

  Once the data sync succeeds, the debt will clear automatically Form RA71 - Request Electronic Data Download, then the debt should clear automatically.

  I would recommend checking the ASIC agent authorisation, retrying the data download, and then confirming that the CAS 360 matches ASIC.

  Please reach out if you have any further questions!
