Changin GL Account Type

We should be able to change the account type for a detail account at the start of the new financial year i.e. 1st of July before any transactions have been recorded towards the account.

 

Currently Myob does not allow this change, creating unnecessary issues for us/Client. Currently the only option is to create a new account with the desired type. This means we/Client have to run 2 sets of reports from 2 accounts and combine them in excel to get the correct balance!!!.

What an inconvenience for another say 10 years using Myob,  just because 4 years ago someone used the wrong account type and Myob is not compatible enough or willing to be with other better software. 

 

Other accounting software allows the change once the current FY is closed and the new FY does not have any transactions.
