MYOB Advanced 2018.1.8 upgrade schedule

Hi everyone

 

MYOB Advanced 2018.1.8 is now in the final stage of regression testing and we intend to begin upgrades from mid-June.

 

What features will be in the 2018.1.8 release?

Australian compliance support for Advanced People including:

  • latest tax tables which will be applied to pays that are paid on or after 1 July 2019.
  • Lift to the maximum super contribution income threshold
  • Tax file number declaration submission via the STP workflow
  • Email payslips can be setup to be password protected

Two features entering beta phases include push notifications and 3rd party timesheet import will also be launched.  These features will be only available via a hidden switch and are designed for MYOB crews to work closely with specific sites to introduce these features in a controlled environment. 

 

When will deployments to clients start?
The following deployment plan is planned to commence from Thursday 13th June

 

  • All Demo sites – Thursday 13th June 2019
  • Phase 1 – Client sites with Advanced People enabled ONLY
    • Wave 1: customer upgrades - Monday 17th June 2019
    • Wave 2: customer upgrades – Wednesday 19th June 2019
    • Wave 3: customer upgrades (if required) – Monday 24th June 2019
  • Phase 2 – Remaining sites on Advanced Business 2018.1.x
    • Wave 4: customer upgrades – Monday 8th July
    • Wave 5: customer upgrades – Wednesday 10th July
    • Wave 6: customer upgrades – Monday 15th July
    • Wave 7: customer upgrades – Wednesday 17th July

 

 

How will I know the timing of client upgrades?
The MYOB team will provide partners details of the client wave timing very shortly, so please keep an eye out. If you have any questions regarding this release, please contact me directly.
