Setting up a sample company in AccountRight 2022

[MitchellH]

Hi MYOB Moderators,

I have a staff member undertaking studies where they need access to a MYOB sample company to enter data. We subscribe to Accountright with one live company file - and a Clearwater file that is now read only. Questions: how do I set up a new sample company - is it different from setting up alive file? Is there an extra subscription fee for this? Is it possible to copy Clearwater and have a new read & write file.

Your assistance would be appreciated.

Hi Mitchell,

I have the same problem. My Clearwater files expired today. I found a link to download new Clearwater files but they are for V2022.9 which is not released yet, so no good.

I have submitted a support request and will report back if I here anything.

FYI The link to download samples.zip is here:

Hi Mitchell,

MYOB say they are aware of this issue and have passed it on to the relevant department.

I expect the Clearwater files to be available and free to use again when they have sorted this out.

Thank you @Steven_M for your reponse. In the meantime I have a need for a sample company so that a staff member can satisfy their Cert IV Business training by using a dummy MYOB file. Is there any way I can set up such a file (desktop is fine) & share it with the staff member. How would I do that. I am in Australia. Thank you

Hi Mitchell,

MYOB support sent me new 2002.8 compatible Clearwater files this morning.

If they don't send them to you, let me know.

Regards,

John.
