Question

How do you find a spend money transaction in MYOB by supplier name?

I understand what you are saying and what you are asking

however the information you can search for is only as good as the information that you enter into myob

i have offered you all the options I can think of

other than searching through all your transactions to find one that will offer some insight as to how it has been recorded is the only way

if you know what account in the general ledger you would allocate it to that would limit the transactions you have to look through

sorry I have exhausted all options I can think of

if you paid by cash though how do you usually record this transaction. For instance is it through petty cash or owners funds

sometim you need to think outside the square

The payment does not have a bank transaction as its cash. I just simply want to look up the price I paid a supplier. This is why I want to search by supplier name. Also, I would like to see what other transactions I have done with them in the past. Other finance software has a simple search feature.... not sure why the supplier name would be complicated or not available? Seem common. Thanks for your help. Hopefully you can suggest a way.

Hi

You can't

what are you trying to achieve ?

perhaps what you want to achieve can be done another way

as I said before you need to know what you are looking for from the bank statement to successfully use the banking find transaction

have you thought of doing a search in the bank itself. How did you pay the account

most banks will have payee names that you can search for transactions

this will give you the statement text that you can search with
