Hey davedxsound
The secure invoicing upgrade enables new features designed to help keep you stay safe online. Once the upgrade has been completed you will be able to send invoices securely through your MYOB file. Your ability to send invoices will only be impacted if you do not complete the upgrade.
Once the upgrade has been complete, if you do not wish to use online payments, you'll be able to switch it off entirely from your businesses settings.
There is a MASSIVE FLAW in this whole upgrade fiasco. Our account has (under threat) activated the Secure Invoicing, and has TOGGLED OFF the Online Payments and BPay options in the Sales Payments settings. But THIS ISN'T WORKING for our invoices. MYOB says it's because they are synched through the workflow app Service M8. That company has no permissions from us or settings in our account with them to receive online payments, but when the invoice created in the app synchs with MYOB, the online payments option is TURNED ON for all those invoices - even though our MYOB settings say Do Not Allow!
The support case I raised with MYOB took a few days to be replied to, and then the reply was a complete buck-passing, saying we need to get it sorted with Service M8. That mob said the same thing about sorting it with MYOB! So now we will likely have our upgrade downgraded and deactivate the Secure Invoicing with MYOB. All invoices will be sent directly from Service M8 (still synched with MYOB), and if I need to re-send a copy invoice from MYOB, I will download a PDF and send it as an attachment from my own email account.
What an absolute FIASCO! There should be NO WAY to have the online payments option appear when the user has not allowed this option in their account settings. MYOB - this is a big FAIL.
Rubbish. MYOB has forcefully gathered all my ID under threat of not being able to send invoices. As you have pointed out, the online payment option happens further down the line. I for one can't wait for the class-action.
Rubbish. By your own admission i dont need to give you my ID and bank details until i wish to use online payments. This is a reverse engineered scam.
