Hi JillL1
keeping backups for 6 months doesn't comply with the ATO especially if they decide to come and do an Audit of your company. we were told that all backups had to be stored for at least 5 years just like keeping all the hard copies of invoicing etc. So i don't know how MYOB can get away with only keeping our backups for 6 months.
