Hi all....Seeking knowledge on changing plans

Hi KIM-2017,

Great question, you’re right to think about whether your current plan matches what you actually use. MYOB Business is like the browser version of AccountRight. If you use our official migration service to move from AccountRight Standard in the cloud to MYOB Business Lite, then yes, your core data (including customers and open invoices) comes across.

For more details, see our help article and this Community post.

       * Possible migration from MYOB AccountRight Plus to MYOB Business Pro

i have sold my business and currently have accounting right. i want to be able to view everything what do you suggestOnline Read Only ?????

Hi janettes, 

If your AccountRight file is online, you can continue to view it after selling the business. The new owner will need to keep the subscription active and invite you as a user with view-only access.

If the new owner later cancels the subscription, they can request Online Read-Only access. This lets you view transactions, run reports, and download attachments, but you won’t be able to edit the file or manage users.

The new owner will need to manage the subscription and any Read-Only request after the ownership transfer.

The new owner does not want to use MYOB but at this stage I want to keep it on my desk top also as is. the only thing is i do not need to add,change,run payrolls etc but everything else stays as is. I may be opening a new business and therefore want the ability to reinstate full subscription. How should I proceed and what is the cost

Also I should ask will the accountant be able to view my records as he has not done the final tax return for the business

Hi janettes, 

Thanks for clarifying.

If you cancel the AccountRight subscription, the online file will only remain available in read-only mode for 60 days. After that, online access may be removed, so make sure you export any reports and records you need before cancelling. There isn’t ongoing access to the online file without an active subscription or eligible Read-Only arrangement.

As you may start another business and want the option to return to full access later, keeping the AccountRight subscription active is the safest option. You can continue using the file through AccountRight desktop and online, and the new owner can manage access for you and your accountant. Your accountant can be invited as a file user with the permissions they need.

Is there any option other than full subscription that will fill my requirements. In other words keep it active but not under full subscription

Hi janettes, 

There isn’t a standard read-only option for customers who need to keep their data available for safekeeping. The file would need to remain on an active subscription to stay available online.
