Delete Ledger Transactions - Connection error

Contacted the support line on 2nd February seeking help to delete some 13 transactions that had been created in MYOB by Amaka.  There were quite a few transactions that we were able to successfully delete from our Square Balance Account, however, 13 transactions from 17th January to the 29th January will not delete due to system showing "Connection Error".  As a result of my phone call on 2nd Feb the support person was unable to resolve the issue and sent me the following email instructions: 

Please use the link below to fix your connection error in Accountright.

Thank you for contacting MYOB Customer Service
 

 

This process has been followed with our IT Consultant without any joy which we thought might be the case.

I have attached a log showing details which may be helpful to aid in resolving this issue along with a ledger printout of the transactions we need to delete.

Your early assistance in resolving a fix for this problem would be appreciated.

  • Hi Trevor2 

     

    Deleting these transactions is causing a problem in the file which causes it to 'disconnect'. Rather than deleting the transactions you could try to either reverse them, or enter a new transaction that effectively reverses them. Alternatively you would need to get MYOB to do this for you, or a MYOB specialist to do this for you. PM me if you want contact details of a MYOB specialist who can help delete the oroginal transactions.

    Hi, Trevor2

     

    Thanks for your post, and we're sorry for the delayed response.

     

    Are you still having issues deleting transactions? If yes, kindly use another device or computer to delete the transaction. Also, please use a different internet connection. Please let us know how it goes on your end.

     

    Best regards,

    Doreen

    Hi Doreen,

     

    We still need assistance with deleting these transactions.  I had contacted the Support Line and they apparently were going flag problem at a higher level and send us an email.  We are still waiting for the email to come through some 10 days later!  Not sure why it is so hard to get follow up support from MYOB.  Any help you can muster would be appreciated to get the transactions deleted.

    Hi, Trevor2

     

    Thanks for updating us.

     

    We know how frustrating it can be to not receive an email regarding an update about your issue. To assist you with this, were you able to delete the transaction using a different device? Also, use a different internet connection.

     

    Let us know how it goes on your end.

     

    Best regards,

    Doreen

    Hi Doreen,

     

    Yes, we have tried on 3 different devices and also tried accessing & deleting thru the Web Browser.

    One device was unsuccessful using different internet access.  Look forward to your follow up.

    Hi Doreen,

     

    Late last week I spent about 6hrs going back & reconciling the accounts, cross ticking entries until I was able to balance the affected ledger accounts.  For info the same error was coming up in the web browser.  Its a pity MYOB could not quickly produce a fix to delete the affected transactions.  Anyhow  have balance the accounts.

    Thanks for trying to resolve.
