perpetual licence upgrade to latest version used offline

Hi

We have a perpetual licence paid outright many years ago. We are currently using accountright premier v19.7  

Can we upgrade to the latest version of myob 2024.2 but continue to use the data files offline? If so, is there a subscription cost?

We have approximately 15 active files

      Hi Tiger1 

       

      One thing MYOB 'overlook' is that you are unlikely to be able to process payroll in AR2024 if you upgrade. This is because tax tables need to be loaded before you can process payroll. Without a current subscription for each company file, tax tables cannot be loaded. There are ways around this, however there may be some cost.

       

      Regards

      Gavin
