AccountRight: Getting Started
New to AccountRight? Start your journey here.Attachments with invoices
yesterday I loved the new feature that allowed multiple attachments to be attached on the sales invoice, that are automatically included when emailing the invoice (but can be deleted) But today I found out that the attachments can't be opened. Message "It appears that we don't support this file format" even though it is a .jpg. It works if I attach them from a different file and send them. But not the ones uploaded directly in myob.Accounting for Student Internship Supervision Fees - Superannuation and PAYG Compliance
Hi Everyone, I operate a childcare centre, and we occasionally receive payments from universities for hosting student interns. We intend to pass the full amount of these payments to the specific teachers who act as supervisors for these students. I have a few questions regarding the correct way to process these payments in MYOB and remain compliant with ATO regulations: 1. Superannuation Guarantee (SG): If we treat this payment as part of the teacher’s salary/wages, we are concerned about the additional cost of Superannuation. If we pay the teacher the exact amount received from the university, the added 12% Super expense would result in a financial loss for the centre. o Is this payment considered Ordinary Time Earnings (OTE)? o Is there a compliant way to pass this on without the employer incurring extra Super costs (e.g., deducting the Super component from the total amount received before payment)? 2. PAYG Withholding: Does this payment require PAYG withholding? If we pass the full amount to the teacher through payroll, should it be taxed at their marginal rate, or can it be treated as a different type of allowance? 3. MYOB Setup: What is the best way to set up this "pass-through" payment in MYOB AccountRight? Should it be a specific Allowance category, and how should the Tax and Superannuation boxes be ticked to ensure the centre’s books balance to zero for this transaction? I want to make sure the teachers receive their fair share while ensuring the business does not end up out of pocket due to on-costs. Thanks in advance for your help!10Views0likes0CommentsRestoring old MYOB file into my library error
I am trying to restore a 2024 backed up company file into my library and keep getting the following error: Code: InvalidType (17) Message: (InvalidType): Unable to locate Service type with CompanyFile ctor 'MYOB.Huxley.API.Services.Helpers.CompanyFileService.ICompanyFileServiceHelper' in service factory manager. how do I fix this issue please? many thanksPayday Super processing payments
I have Pay Super setup and have been using this for a number of years. I pay Super monthly, so at the end of each month, I go into Pay Superannuation on the Payroll Screen and make the payments. Am I right in assuming the the process will be exactly the same but instead of being on a monthly basis it will be weekly as I process the payroll?. And am I right in assuming that there is nothing further we need to do to be PayDay Super ready? Many thanks25Views0likes1CommentCancellation of MYOB subscription
I would like to request the cancellation of my MYOB subscription before the end of my free trial period. I have tried to locate the cancellation option in my account, but I was unable to find any available option other than contacting you via email. Therefore, I would appreciate your assistance in processing this cancellation as soon as possible.164Views0likes11CommentsOperation Timeout error
Hi, When I go to Reports > Index to Reports > Sales > Aged Receivables [Detail] then click Display Report or Export to Excel I get the attached Operation Timeout error. Clicking the Advanced Filters button also produces the same error. Our Finance team requires me to produce the Aged Receivables [Detail] report. How can I fix this error?24Views0likes2CommentsPrint list of customers by Price Level
Hello, I'm trying to print a list of customers with their Item Prive Level. This was a question back in 2022 and the solution was to use the Import/Export Assistant. Unfortunately, the field Price Level is not amongst the available fields. Can I add Price Level to the Selected Field list? or is there another way to produce the information? ThanksFixing Super payment Error
Hi , I noticed that there is a new way to fixing a Super error instead of reversing the whole Super batch. https://www.myob.com/au/support/myob-business/payroll/superannuation/returned-superannuation-contributions?productview=BrowserIt I followed the instructions. This makes sense except for the very end on Step 3 where it tells to You don't need to select the pay reversal (the negative super amount) when making your super payment – only select the reprocessed payment. What happens to this negative figure? It now just sit in my pay Super section and I don't know how to get rid of it. it pops up every time i try to make another Super payment. how do I get rid of it?15Views1like2CommentsOffline File Phase Out
Just got notification that Accountright Offline is being phased out 17th June 2026. Well I guess we all new it was coming one day but the notification period is way to short and it would be very unfair to require those of us who can not run online to change accounting software so quickly and just before end of financial year. It is OK to say goodbye but I would ask you make a clear option available to get us into the new financial year before enforcing this and clarify ongoing access to our own data. I want to understand this line in the notification better "AccountRight desktop isn’t going anywhere. The only change is that your company file/s will need to be online to receive product and security updates, support, and online services." But this contradicts the line "This means if your file is not online after 17 June 2026, you will not be able to open, edit or save your offline file. " So we will we or wont we be able to continue using an existing/ older version indefinitely - noting the above limitations around updates. 20+ years ago I actually had an email from your CEO saying that MYOB would never do this when MYOB started the whole file registration thing. Are you saying that unless we share are file with MYOB, we wont have a way to access our own data?34Views0likes5CommentsPAYROLL FAILED

MYOB is not going to have the above desktop, our client's employees has default category (we set if for state - NSW VIC QLD etc), and identifier or some other reporting. In online business version, it has no such identifier tag for employee? In desktop version, report has advanced filters to select category or identifiers, any in online business version?54Views0likes5CommentsPayday super with a WPN
I have a client who employs a Nanny and therefore not eligible for an ABN, she only has a WPN. Due to having a WPN the client is exempt from STP until 2033 however it appears not exempt from Payday super. I currently lodge the super via the SBSCH with the ATO but this is going to be closed by 1 July 2026. If MYOB doesn't accept a WPN, how am I supposed to lodge the fortnightly super payment?41Views0likes2CommentsPayday Super - Salary Sacrifice
Hi, I have questions re this topic too. I clicked on the link, went to the ATO and salary sacrifice is reportable. what should the 'linked payable category' be for salary sacrifice? Super guarantee is set to superannuation payable but salary sacrifice is currently set to PAYG withholdings payable. Is this right or wrong? Also the ATO reporting category is set to salary sacrifice & RESC - does this mean it will automatically be added to the super payment?10Views0likes0CommentsPay Super - ability to future date
With upcoming changes to Payday Super it would be extremely beneficial to be able to create a superannuation payment with a future date, authorise today and the payment is not taken out of the bank account until the future date. I often do payroll in advance when going on leave. With Payday super we need to pay super on the day of payroll. The current Pay Super in MYOB means that although the Pay Super is for a date in advance, that is effectively ignored and the money comes out of the bank account on the date it is authorised. This will put pressure on bookkeepers/payroll staff to have to either login on the payday to authorise super, or put cashflow pressure on businesses to pay super in advance of the payroll which seems illogical.168Views15likes6Comments
