Guide: Workstation Installation for Accountants Office

Hello everyone. 

We've published a quick guide to completing a workstation installation for Accountants Enterprise on your workstation.

These instructions apply to the following products:

  • AO Tax (NZ)
  • AO Practice Manager (NZ)
  • AO Practice Manager (AU)
  • AO Workpapers (AU)
  • AO Statutory Reporter (AU)
  • AO Tax (AU)

 

If you've installed MYOB Accountants Office (AO) on a client server or peer-to-peer network you'll need to run a workstation installation to allow the workstations on your network access to the latest MYOB AO. 

 

Before you begin:

  • Make sure you're logged onto the workstation as an administrator.
  • Disable User Account Control for the duration of the install. If you change settings, make sure to reboot the workstation prior to continuing.
  • Enable linked connections - make sure to reboot the workstation after applying this setting.
  • Ensure any anti-virus programs have been disabled that may be operating on the workstation.

 

To run a workstation installation for Accountants Office (AO):
  1. Open Windows Explorer and navigate to: \\servername\MYOBAO\AOSQL\WorkstationInstall, where: servername is the name of the server or computer on which you performed the server installation.
  2. Double-click on setup.exe. The Licence Agreement window appears. Follow the prompts to continue installation.
  3. Click Finish. The workstation installation is complete
