How to configure/check Excel integration settings in MYOB
I've gone through existing community notes as best as possible but am needing help with next steps.
Desktop version of MYOB AR. Workstation has had a recent upgrade to W11. OneDrive has recently been switched on. Today Reports / Export to Excel stopped functioning. The function is not greyed out. There is no error message, the screen gives a minor flicker of acknowledgement, but otherwise no Excel report is generated.
- AR has been uninstalled and reinstalled
- MYOB Cache has been cleared.
- Other suggestions say check Excel integration settings are configured correctly in MYOB, however I don't know how to do this. The only notes on HOW to do this take me to instructions on adding an ADD-ON within MS Excel. Screenshot below shows were I'm up to and all that happens in the 'select data type' are a bunch of tick boxes. Nothing seems to improve the situation.
- I'm not even sure if this is even the right fix or if I'm meant to be doing something else
- Also just wondering why I'm here and why the two programmes I use the most are just not doing what they're meant to.
Hi Sisley,
You did an awesome job checking the community notes and trying some troubleshooting first. It's great to pause and confirm this is the best path, especially when the two apps you depend on aren’t cooperating.
It's a bit odd that there’s no error and the Export button isn’t greyed out. If Export to Excel stopped working after moving to Windows 11, reinstalling AccountRight as an admin usually does the trick. Also double-check that Microsoft Excel is installed and compatible, and that there aren’t any permission or security blocks on the MYOB install folder. I’ll share a few forum threads below with steps others used to fix the “can’t export report to Excel” issue:
Cheers,
