Custom report not appearing (related to user access, after 2022.10 upgrade)

This issue has started after upgrading to 2022.10. Could be coincidental, but nothing else has changed at our end. This is replicable on multiple computers.

 

We have a custom report saved, which is which is simply the Accounts -> Jobs -> Job List report.

For a particular user with restricted access, the report has disappeared from the Custom Report list.

Their access/privilages have not changed.

If i grant them access to Reports -> Accounts, the custom report reappears.

However this provides access to too much confidential data, hence why they were setup to only have access to the specific reports which were saved under Custom.

 

Is there a way to either fix this change/bug?

Or tweak the privillages, so they EXPORT just the Accounts -> Jobs -> Job List report without seeing the other Accounts Profit and Loss reports, etc?

 

  • Was their a fix for this?

    Agree this is an absolute pain.

    How do we give any users access to ALL Custom Reports?

    We cant add all users to all confidential information

      Hi Rick,

       

      No there hasn't been a fix, and once again MYOB have done a ridiculous upgrade and then just bury their heads in the sand and hope we just go away.

       

      Apparently MYOB believe the path to take is just give all users access to all reports regardless of their roll.

       

      For example:  The lady operating the front counter needs to have access to my entire business financial reports just so she can balance the EFTPOS machine with the undeposited funds custom report.

       

      Whats next:-   Version 2022.11 - user roles eliminated altogether and everyone is an administrator????  Isn't that just as short sighted?

    Same issue here.  Only one of our custom reports is appearing.  The aged payable report.  All others have gone.

  • Same issue here.

     

    Spent 8 hours yesterday with tech support with no resolution.

      To assist our teams investigate this can you please provide the following information:

       

      1. Can any user see the custom forms?

        Hi Tracey,

         

        Thanks for your reply.

         

        1. Can any user see the custom forms? NO, I AM LOGGED IN AS ADMINISTRATOR AND CAN ONLY SEE THE SAME ONE REPORT AS ALL OTHER USER ROLES.  THE REPORT WE CAN ALL SEE IS THE AGED PAYABLES.  WE HAD ABOUT 6 CUSTOM REPORTS.
        2. Is it only the browser that is affected or both browser and desktop? ONLY IN DESKTOP.  MY BROWSER CUSTOM FORM IS STILL APPEARING.
        3. Do they appear if you use another device? HAVE CHECKED ON DIFFERENT COMPUTERS AND SAME.
        4. Do you give permission for a product specialist to access your file to look into this? If yes, please provide the last FOUR digits of the serial number and the Company File ID (Help>>About MYOB AccountRight)
        5. LAST FOUR DIGITS OF SERIAL NUMBER: 2035  COMPANY FILE ID: 2

        Hope this helps.  Thanks

         

  • Hi Everyone

     

    I've raised this our product specialists team for investigation. I will update this post when I have more information.

    I am also having a similar problem.

    I have three customised reports that I need to print each day, and ever since the recent update, one of them has disappeared.

    This is not good MYOB!

    I am also having the same issue.  We have girls doing timesheets for wages and we have a custom report called "Timesheets".  However they do not have access to Payroll and we do not want them to have access to Payroll, but we need them to be able to have access to this report to be printed to check that all timesheets have been processed correctly before processing wages.   And yes the girls access/privileges have not changed either.

     

    Agree this issue only started after upgrading to 2022.10.  This needs to be changed back to how it was. 

     

    Can MYOB please change this back please ASAP.

    Our purchasing team use the Job Activity Report to review job costs. Before 2022.10 they were able to access it through custom reports.

     

    Thanks to this upgrade those users now need access to profit & loss and balance sheets reports to do their job.

     

    Thanks myob for the extra security (sarcasm). Now we have no security.

      Issues for everyone since that upgrade.  I have the problem of entry level staff members needing access to my entire financials just to balance their cash float and EFTPOS machine.

       

      2022.11 just rolled out and no fix.

       

      What is rather ironic is I needed 2FA authentication to write this post but MYOB can't see a problem with giving my staff members access to my entire financial reports for the last 7 years just to balance a cash float.

    I am also having the same issue and was wondering when there will be an update on this issue??

    • Its MYOB so of course they have not bothered assisting! I had to recreate the report. Perhaps we should all invoice them for our time and talk about service levels that don't reflect the contracted agreement.
