General Journals Not Saving
I've been using AccountRight msi (offline desktop version) for a number of years with a number of company files. The current version being used 2025.11
About 2 months ago I detected an issue with general journals not being recorded to the ledger (despite no error being displayed) For example:-
- I enter a journal > click "Record"
- I run the general journal for the date in question, and the entry just "recorded" is not there.
This happens repeatedly and occurs across the different company files.
I contacted MYOB support who provided a very onerous "fix", only to find the issue presents again.
The "fix" involves
- backing up the company file,
- locating and deleting myob cache,
- deleting the company file,
- unzipping the backup file
- restoring the company file from the backup,
- adding the company file back to the library,
- opening the file to check a security setting,
- unchecking the security setting,
- exiting myob,
- restarting myob.
This works sporadically, and when it doesn't work, I need to repeat the above until it does.
This has become very frustrating, very onerous, administratively crippling, commercially inhibitive and unsustainable.
Each time I enter a transaction I need to check it to verify it has been recorded, and if it hasn't, I need to carry-out the 10-step "fix" above.
Something has changed with the myob logic in an update since 2025.3. This was the last version I had installed (prior to updating to 2025.11) that did not exhibit this behaviour.
Does anybody have any news regarding this and when a fix is likely to be released?
Thank-you.

Peter
