Need the option to turn off self-onboarding prompts

Agree with this user's suggestion. Please respond with an actionable change

I agree 100%! Just had a situation where someone changed their tax type without my knowing and then got an email from the ATO telling me I was not taxing them correctly.

There absolutely should be an option not to use this function as it takes the control away from the Employer.

Jaydana1​ It's not perfect, but there's a new setting hidden in the Payroll Settings >> General payroll information to make it ask you every time like we used to be able to. This gives the option to not use it. Still have to choose it manually each time but at least the option reappears.

I totally agree 100 % and this also creates confusion when employees receive an invite that is not required or necessary 

I wanted an option to turn this off, and instead the feature was changed and defaulted to ON. For crying out loud. Seriously. I sent an email to the employee telling him to ignore the system email and went ahead and set him up, then he still went and entered his own details, complete with typos, no capitals in address etc so I had to re-enter the information. I've now found the option to "ask each time" but seriously, I just need to turn it off permanently.

Yes 100% this is the most worthless invention by MYOB.  We do our OWN entry for employees.  I don't need someone filling it in a) incorrectly, b)lower and upper case when all my entry is in upper case c) spelling mistakes that I then have to correct myself ANYWAY.  This does not save time, it is double handling and very, very VERY annoying.  This needs to be taken off altogether.  I have just now sent a stupid onboarding invitation when I didn't want to.  Usually there is a box I untick to be able to complete it manually.  It isn't there???? I checked again and it still isn't showing.  Get this onboarding feature removed permanently.  I am so **bleep** annoyed now I have to wait until this person fills it in and then redo it all myself ANYWAY .. NOT HAPPY JAN!!!!!!

Hi Amanda, when I search for 'self-onboarding', there are a LOT of posts. How do I find out if this is one of the few ideas that was carried over to the new system, or if we have to create a new thread? I can't access my original post anymore either. "Frustrated" doesn't begin to cover my feelings about the fact that many of us invested a LOT of time voting, commenting and making suggestions over the past decades, and that you (MYOB, not you, personally) have now simply disregarded it all and made us start pretty much from scratch. 

Same thing just happened to us.  Automatic on-boarding after latest update where employee was sent automatic onboarding without us being able to stop it as no option was provided to stop the process, and when the auto onboarding from the employee automatically updated itself - the employee's tax was changed to no tax-free threshold without us even realizing as we had initially set everything up correctly.  So frustrating! We pay a high monthly fee for absolutely nothing and basic things such as these can cause such major issues affecting real people!
