Transfer subscription from old bookkeeper to new

Hi, we have been requesting that a subscription be transferred from our old bookkeeper to our new, but the old bookkeeper is insisting that a form be completed and sent.  We cannot locate this, and would have thought the process would be a little easier.  We are concerned that the old bookkeeper is still accessing our financial information, and this is a breach of privacy.  The only form we have found is a Change of Ownership form, which is not the correct form. 

 

Thank you

    Hi Earl, unfortunately the old bookkeeper is not updating the new bookkeepers profile, as she states she cannot.  It seems when they set up the new bookkeeper it has not been done correctly

    Hi SYM_Bus_Service,

    Thanks for confirming. As the subscription is being transferred from one bookkeeper to another, and you want the new bookkeeper to take over payment, the request should be submitted by the primary contact of the new bookkeeper’s practice. If the new bookkeeper is the primary contact, they can submit it directly.

    Regards,
    Earl

    Hi Sai, the subscription needs to be transferred from one bookkeeper to another.  Who submits the request in this instance?  We want our new bookkeeper to pay for the subscription

    Hi SYM_Bus_Service,

     

    Thanks for raising this. I can understand why you'd want this sorted quickly, especially if you're concerned about who still has access to your business information. If the current primary contact is still connected to the business, they can submit a support request through My Account to nominate a new primary contact. If that person is no longer part of the business, uncontactable, or no longer has a relationship with the business, then a Change of Primary Contact form and supporting documents are needed. That request is submitted through My Account, and the completed form and documents are then attached by replying to the case email from MYOB. This help article steps through both situations: Change the primary contact on an MYOB account.

     

    Also, if the old bookkeeper still has user access to your MYOB file, it’s a good idea to remove that access as soon as possible. 

     

    Regards,

    Sai
