Allow Job P&L Reports Across Financial Years

I regularly work on jobs that span two financial years, and every February–April I run into the same issue: I can't get an accurate Job Profit & Loss report.

For example, a client might pay a deposit in February, then I purchase components over the next few months, and finally issue the sales invoice in April—after the new financial year begins. Because of this, the income and expenses fall into different financial years, making the Job P&L report incomplete and misleading.

The current workaround—exporting reports from each financial year into Excel—is time-consuming, clunky, and frustrating. The data is already in MYOB, so surely there's a better solution.

Please consider enabling Job P&L reports to pull data across multiple financial years. This would save time and reduce errors for so many businesses like mine.

 

Thanks in advance—this would make a huge difference!

    I agree - being able to report comprehensively on projects that span multiple financial years would be incredibly useful. I’ve managed a few projects running over five years and have had to manually compile figures to report on the entire project, which is time-consuming. It would also make it possible to acquit grants using a MYOB-generated report that covers the full reporting period. At the moment, this all has to be done manually, increasing the risk of errors.
