Need to restart entire myob business file

I started myob business in Aug 23 and in the process of learning I have ended up with some very messy accounts. I am chasing my tail nad getting nowhere and  would like to delete all entries and start again from zero. How do I do this?

  • Hello Doreen,

     

    I am speaking with MYOB Support at the moment and am hoping for a resolution. Will see how that goes. If not, I will consider your advice as an option. 

     

    Thank you and kind regards

    Thanks for your post, and welcome to the MYOB Community Forum.

     

    In addition to the information that Mike_James provided, you may cancel your current subscription and re-purchase a new one to start a new file. This will allow you to start all over again.

      Update: I have just had a new subscription installed as per Doreen P's suggestion. Support desk was very helpful.

      I now have two subscriptions showing as active. Is it okay to cancel the old one as I won't need it anymore, or are they connected in some way? I don't want to pay for two subscriptions :(

       

      Regards

        Hi, Diane4

         

        As per checking, your old subscription has an end date of 31/1/2024. This will be cancelled automatically on that given date. Rest assured that you will not pay for two subscriptions.

         

        We are here to assist you promptly.
         

        Best regards,

        Doreen

    Hi Diane4 , welcome to the forum.  By far the simplest option is to get a clone of your file made using a third party service. Search for "accountright clone myox". There's a cost for that service.

      Thanks Mike,

       

      I have contacted MYOB Support and am working through a solution with them. I wasn't even aware that cloning was a thing! Good to know there is something like this as an option. 

       

      Thanks and regards
