Can I stop pay run data showing up in accounts?

Hi. I work out my payroll and file PAYE returns etc. using MYOB Payroll   But it's only for 3 staff and I find it much easier to then make the wages payments directly in my on-line banking app.  So I don't need MYOB Payroll to set up an electronic payment for this.

 

However, when I make a monthly account report in the MYOB Accounts App I get "Pay Run" data from MYOB Payroll showing upunder "Payroll"  but this isn't needed as I can simply use the bank transactions to get the Payroll total - much easier.  (Also the "Pay Run" data from MYOB Payroll is gross (incl. PAYE) so matching is really messy.)

 

Is there a way to 'disconnect' MYOB Payroll from MYOB accounting - or at least stop MYOB Accounting from grabbing "Pay Run" data?

 

Thx

John

    Hi OSCN,

    Welcome to the Community Forum! Currently, it is not possible to 'disconnect' MYOB Payroll from MYOB Accounting or stop MYOB Accounting from grabbing "Pay Run" data. Because the payroll is connected to the Ledger accounts and payroll, especially if you are using electronic payments.

      Thanks Earl. That's too bad. As it is I can't produce usable monthly accounts with this extra data so I'll probably need to leave MYOB Payroll and use a separate payroll software. At least I've only wasted 6 months and it won't be too painful to migrate elsewhere.

       

      Key learning - I would not recommend MYOB to any small entity like the one I operate.
