Back up offline is not available v2026.5
When will this feature to back up offline be available for the latest version v2026.5. When searching for answers the useless chat response is to go to: Set Up, Preference and enable offline backup ...
Forum Discussion
Mike is still not listening to the people! MYOB take me out of SPAM and post my concerns!
Did you know that the AccountRight Premier PC 2026.5 version currently allows backups offline so why can't AccountRight Plus PC 2026.5 version? Or is this a temporary oversight?
Hi MJBook​ , sorry im not sure why the system flagged your post as spam.
I am listening, but its worth noting, that feedback and change takes time.
I would not be able to take the comments from the forum and in a matter of days be able to reverse a change or decision that has been made by MYOB.
I am working very closely with the product manager for AccountRight around the feedback for offline backups and we will be looking into possible solutions.
The removal of offline capability in AccountRight was a technical decision because the underlying technology has reached end of life and needed to be removed from our software.
As such, I dont believe that we could reinstate offline backups or roll back the change to offline capability in AccountRight as a solution to customers concerns about data ownership and record keeping.
To your second point, if Premier is allowing you to still do an offline backup this would definitely be an oversight and I will raise this with the team to look into.
I'm using Accountright Premier 2026.5 on the desktop version (online data) and it definitely isn't allowing offline backups.
Hi Veejays,
Interesting! I have just backed up and it is working, however when I go to Set Up, Preferences, Security it doesn't have the facility to tick offline backup, but when I go File, back up it defaults to my offline back file. It can be done so MYOB - Reinstate OFFLINE backups!
There are so many things going wrong in MYOB so I guess this is another one!!!!!
