Using MYOB Pay Super only — can other bill payments come out of my bank account?
Hi everyone,
I’m trying to understand how MYOB AccountRight / MYOB Pay Super works before I set it up.
At the moment, my bank account is not connected to MYOB, and I want to keep my normal bill payments separate. My main concern is that if I connect my bank account for super payments only, I do not want MYOB to accidentally pay other bills or supplier payments from that same bank account.
What I’m trying to confirm is:
- If I set up MYOB Pay Super and nominate my bank account for super payments, does that bank connection apply only to super?
- If I enter transactions in Pay Bills, can MYOB ever move money out of my bank account automatically?
- Is it correct that other bill payments would only happen if I separately use electronic payments / bank files?
- Can I safely use MYOB for super payments only while keeping all other payments manual?
I’d really appreciate confirmation from anyone who knows the setup well, especially if you’ve done this in practice.
Thank you.
Hi CraigW1,
Yep, you can absolutely use MYOB Pay Super just for super. Connecting your bank account for Pay Super doesn’t mean MYOB will start paying your other bills from that account. The bank account linked to Pay Super is used when a Pay Super payment is submitted and authorised. So if you enter transactions in Pay Bills, MYOB won’t automatically take money from your bank account just because those bills are sitting there. Other bill or supplier payments would only happen if you separately choose to use electronic payments / bank files for those. So in short, yes, you can safely use MYOB for super payments only and keep your normal bill payments manual.
Regards,
Sai
