Report: On banking transactions by contacts

I have come from using a different version of MYOB where you could view transactions by supplier or customer no matter which way you entered them in.  I was really shocked to find out that you can't do this with Live Accounts.

 

As I enter the majority of my sales in via "Banking, receive money" I cannot use the "Sales By Customer" Report as this will only bring up transactions that you have entered via "Invoices, Create Invoice".  It would be so beneficial to be able to be able to use this report for the sales that you have entered in via "Banking, Receive Money" as well.  

 

Also the same for when you enter expenses via "Banking, spend money".  You cannot use the "Expenses By Supplier" Report as it only brings up transactions that you have entered via "Expenses, Enter expense".

 

When you have alot of expenses and sales to enter in, it is too time consuming to enter them all in via the methods above that will allow you to run a report on them.

    Hi Everyone

    MYOB Essentials allows for the user to the run the Banking Transactions report which can be filtered by contact. This report can be run by Reports>>All reports>>Banking reports>>Banking transactions.

    How is this type of report performed in MYOB Business?  Namely, how does one filter spend/receive money transactions by Contact?

    Hi Colin123

     

    Thanks for posting a clarification of this suggestion.

     

    Since the initial post is from July 2012, I'm not sure if kcsrone can respond to this question. But based on my understanding, the customer sales report data is taken directly from the sales transactions recorded from the sales tab. On the other hand, the transactions from the Spend Money or Receive Money window are linked directly to the contacts which produces a disconnect. Also, I believe it is set this way since receiving money does not necessarily mean a sale.

     

    Feel free to create a new thread if you require any other assistance.

     

    Thanks,

    Hi Genreve_S 

     

    Thanks for replying.  My comment was directed more Steven_M whereby he provided a solution for MYOB Essentials.  I'm after one for MYOB Business.

    Hi Genreve_S 

     

    I assume from your reply, there isn't a solution for MYOB Business?

     

    On another thread a similar solution was suggested by using ther Supplier transactions report which supposedly can be found in Reporting>>Reports>>Purchases.  Again, this isn't availble in MYOB Business so I assume this is only for Essentials.
