Error message - Failed to Export PDF

Hey MYOB Brainstrust, 

I am new to MYOB and have been invoicing for the last 3 weeks no problems, but tonight i am getting a error message on my invoice when i go to view pdf - Failed to Export PDF... Ive tried the ususal stuff, signing out of MYOB, tried using another browser tab etc etc nothing seems to work. Also tried googling it, nothing makes sense. can anyone help? many thanks

 

  • Hi Everyone. I managed to sort this out. Through contacting support - I was directed to delete the invoice template I had and create a new one. This solved the problem. :)

    • Hi there, I am having a similar problem. The invoices are showing as open, but I can't download it, view the preview, etc. Clearing the cache is not working. See the attached screenshots. Any assistance would be helpful.

      Hi SMAUS,

       

      Not being able to preview or download invoices seems to be a bit odd since I've tested it on our end, and everything seems to be working fine for previewing and downloading invoices. If clearing the cache didn't fix the issue, try using a different browser. I've also run a fixed script on your file. Please log out and log back in to see if the issue is resolved.

       

      If the problem continues, you'll need to reach out to our support team for further help. You can contact them via live chat through our virtual assistant MOCA or raise a support ticket at myaccount.myob.com.

       

      Cheers,

      Princess

        Yeah, thanks, Earl. As you can see from the original post, a ticket has been raised, but no one from MYOB has responded!
