Employee Details Report - MYOB Business

Hi Kaye_H​, barlowh​, and PP5​ 

It’s disappointing that users are prevented from generating a detailed employee report.  This appears to be a deliberate restriction that discourages users from easily collating their own corporate data, particularly if they’re considering a transition away from the platform.

As a workaround, I’ve found that the Pay Item Transactions Report offers somewhat of a solution:

• Generate the report for your most recent payroll date. This will ensure only one entry per employee.
• In Customise, add the following fields: Employee, Card ID, Address, TFN, and Phone. (Default columns can't be removed and Email is not an option.)
• Drag these fields to the top of the list to ensure they appear first in the report.
• Refresh the report and click Expand All.
• Export to Excel and remove any irrelevant columns manually.

Note: This method will only capture employees included in the last payroll run. For casuals or staff who work irregularly, extend the date range to capture a broader period, repeat the steps above, and use Remove Duplicates in Excel to clean the list. This should give you a more complete employee contact list.

Additionally, it may be worth exploring other platforms dedicated to employee attendance and payroll processing.  There are a heap on the webbernet, such as Deputy, Tanda, or Employment Hero. These systems integrate with MYOB and, while they may cost a bit more, they provide significantly more flexibility and efficiency across onboarding, timesheets, and payroll.

Hope this helps!

P.S. Regarding the Ideas Exchange — I wouldn’t rely on it. From what I’ve heard, feedback isn’t actively monitored. There are several posts requesting an employee report, including one from Kaye_H​ over two years ago that has significant number of views.
