Hi all.
I'd like to address the confusion surrounding the latest update to AccountRight and the change in how invoices are printed.
Previously, there was a feature gap where exported invoice PDFs from AccountRight didn't include the "How to Pay" section, while emailed invoice attachments and MYOBB invoices did. With this update, we've standardised the PDF format so customers' clients receive a consistent, professional-looking invoice no matter how it's generated or shared.
I completely understand why some customers may find the additional page frustrating, particularly if they're printing invoices and see it as wasted paper. There are a couple of workarounds available:
Hopefully that provides some context for the change.
Hi AmandaMYOB​ This is ridiculous and not a solution at all! Your response is so condescending, there is no "confusion" and the implication that our previous invoices were somehow not "professional-looking" is way off the mark. I would also like to point out that this payment info still prints even when the invoice has already been paid and shows a nil balance. This is the type of thing that actually make our invoices less "professional-looking."
In our case, we are now printing an additional, unwanted page with every single invoice and there is no way to turn it off. To address your "solutions" - 1)we print multi page invoices and often don't know how many pages it will be until we print it, so can't just print the first page. We can't check a print preview to count the number of pages because the software does not allow it. 2)it is not practical for us to send double sided invoices to the customers and they have complained when we did this in the past. This is based on our customer feedback. We listen to our customers, I would encourage you to do the same.
Having used MYOB consistently in this business for years it is sad to see such a decline in the product, and a huge factor in us looking for another accounting software.
I can understand that this is useful for some, however it should absolutely be optional and we should be able to turn this off.
If the invoices are customised by the user, how can you say that invoices were not "professional-looking" . could the QR code and BSB feature be an optional Addition that can be added to the custom invoice or is that too practical ?
Well said ACAUS
