Order of Names in Payroll

When is MYOB going to fix the order of names in the Payroll to sort using the SURNAME - I do not know of ANY filing system that uses the First (Christian) name as the point of reference - ITS JUST WRONG

    Yes - this whole voting system is quite ridiculous when something in the software is simply 'wrong'.

    (What users come on here to look up people's comments to see if they should be voted on?  Crazy.)

    We should not have to VOTE on a issue that is essentially MYOB's doing 

    NO other filing system uses the FIRST name - Just get your tech people to code it so it sorts like it should be - by SURNAME

    Princess_R​  Having the same problem.  Never come across this issue in any other professional environment.  Please advise when this will be fixed.

    Honestly - you need to get this fixed.  It is a big mar on an otherwise satisfactory payroll system.  VERY FRUSTRATING as a user.

    Hi 1300HOTAIR,

     

    Absolutely hearing you on this, sorting by surname in payroll is something that has already been suggested in our Ideas exchange, and I notice you have voted for it too (thank you). You’re definitely not the only one wishing for this. We’re rooting for this feature to be prioritised and can confirm that our product developers have it in their list of suggestions for improvement.

     

    Cheers,

    Princess
