We seem to have the same problem as many other users - We have 8 MYOB files and usually have a majority of them open at once to do invoicing, reconciliations, internal transfers, etc

Now with the automatic log off we will have what minimum 8 up to maybe 50 re-logins a day - what a WASTE of TIME and PRODUCTIVITY
The ATO has NOT mandated this specific action from MYOB at the level they chose
The ATO has no mandatory 2FA or Inactivity requirements for normal accounting functionality. These apply only to the STP and BAS reporting functionality (For online files).
We know MYOB will not listen to users
We have reviewed our requirements and are closing two files we do not use

We are a multi company group and the same situation you are in! Files open all day, data matching, intercompany purchasing, transferring funds between all companies! Myob are not listening. I have had a look at the ATO website. It states if you are not using the Multi factor security every 24 hours then this lockout inactivity applies. I am happy to do the MFA (Multi Factor Authenication) to log into each entity Myob file at the beginning of each day! I have been doing some research and another software company starting with x... have this or they have a 60 minute lockout if the MFA is not in use.
