Points and Status Credits earn, ? incorrect earn from Oneworld Partner [MH]

Hi all, I did 3 lots of the below for 4 x family members. April 17 as per below, Jan 17 and October 16. The KUL-SYD legs were all business however all showed up as Flexible Economy on QF activity statement. On the Qantas Earning Points & Status Credit Calculator, Business does not show up when selecting KUL-SYD however a similar route SIN-SYD with other partners such as SriLankan or Finnair show 5,000 QF Points earn and 60 SC earn. Is this because QF does not fly the route?

Unfortunately MH doesn't earn full business credits when flying into and out of Australia. I'm not sure if this table is still accurate as I saved it when looking at rates etc at the start of the year but you'll see that the maximum you can earn on MH into and out of Aus is flex economy credits etc.

Malaysia airlines has special earning rules for flights to and from Australia - earns at economy rates even if in business class. using Sri Lankan (UL) will give you an incorrect outcome.

From the QF partner earn tables for MH those flights earn:

Flights booked in C, D, I , J and Z class will earn at Flexible Economy Frequent Flyer Earn Category, however will receive Malaysia Airlines Business Class service, and flights booked in A and F class will earn at Flexible Economy Frequent Flyer Earn Category, however will receive Malaysia Airlines First Class service.
