I am in the process of doing a tax return for a company that has a taxable income of $15000. Due to franking credits they have no tax to pay. Do I still need to use up the carried forward losses to make the taxable income nil or can I save these for a year when tax is ultimately payable?

yes losses must be applied.
Franking credits cannot be used to create a refund in a company. any excess are grossed up and treated as a carried forward loss.
