Capture

A staff member has just purchased a new phone - she is now locked out of Capture to record receipts.  The advice online is that MYOB is phasing out Capture to be replaced with MYOB Assist.  There is no MYOB Assist app available in the App Store - I believe it is just for Australian users at this stage.

She has deleted the Capture app and when she tries to reinstall it it says "This version is not valid anymore - please update to latest version".  There is no latest version!

Please advise - I have no problem reinstalling the app or signing out and in again.  Why is she having this problem?  (She has a Samsung S25 - I have Iphone)

    Hi eftl,

     

    Thanks for raising this. I can see MYOB Capture isn’t working as expected. Please try restarting your device and check that its operating system and the MYOB Capture app are up to date. If the issue continues, please reach out to our live chat support through our virtual assistant, MOCA, or submit a case via My Account so we can investigate this with you.

     

    Regards,

    Sai

  • Hi eftl

    I have just come across the same problem and have a Samsung S25.  I have just installed MYOB Assist: Invoice & Capture and it is working well.  Delete the old Capture App first then download the new one through the Play Store.

    Hi Shirley - thanks for your response.  Are you in Australia or NZ?

    Hi Hi_Ursula,

     

    I can understand why customers using the Capture app would be keen to move to Assist in NZ. At the moment, there isn’t an option for MYOB Assist in NZ. 

     

    For now, the alternative is to upload documents manually through Uploads/In Tray, or use email forwarding to send files in directly.

    You can find the steps here: https://www.myob.com/au/support/myob-business/purchases/working-with-in-tray-documents?productview=Browser

    We aren't keen to move to Assist - what we are keen for is to retain Capture until there is a viable alternative available in NZ, whether that is Assist or not.  Not sure if it's just Samsung users affected, or all new phones - hopefully there is some priority to get this issue sorted.
