I"m a bit confused here. So we are ditching MYOB from 1 July 2026 after using it for 30 years and if our file is only online, how do we get access to it if we no longer have a paid subscription. Surely this can not be legal as the data that is stored is our property is it not?? Given that the ATO require 5 years of data if they audit, how are we supposed to give them that if we do not have a back up?
I agree. My senario is sad because I audit numerous not for profit entities. They are using MYOB, paying the subscription, but due to committee moving, resigning, etc they are not sure who even signed them up. They still have access, but not to add a user. So, I rely on the back up they send to do their audit. Unfortunately, alot of these entities will now have to fully cancel their current subscriptions & get new ones, or move to another software program ( which I think I will recommend to them ! ). Because they are not the administrator, if they get a new subscription, MYOB wont transfer the data & are unbelievably unhelpful when waiting on the phone for 1 hour !!
