VILLAGEMALL^®
 VillageMall supports the OECD Standardised Audit File (SAF-T)..

SAF-T provides a vendor independent archive specification, approved by the leading 30 industrialised nations of the OECD.

Brisbane, Australia,- September 2005 - VillageMall^®, the premier provider of online Business Solutions for Australian small business owners and operators, today announced Australia's first deployment of OECD SAF-T version 1.0 specification.

"Our support for this OECD specification gives peace of mind to our Customers," said VillageMall CEO Charles Moore, upon announcing the new service. "SAF-T provides an vendor independent format for the archive of company data, suitable for processing by Tax Administrations world wide. While VillageMall has always offered a full backup of a company data using industry standard archive formats, these are not generally accepted by Tax administrations like the Australian Tax Office. SAF-T has been approved by the OECD and was developed to address this specific requirement. "As a online service provider we simply do things a lot faster and more efficiently than desktop bound business applications, being the first, and currently only Australian company to support SAF-T demonstrates yet again our superior business model. VillageMall is committed to delivering mid-range features, at small business prices to our clients, while supporting non-proprietary standards."


Pricing and Availability
A SAF-T export, either performed via a user download or delivered on CD, is an optional service available upon request from today.
