Re: date preferences in MYOB

Hi @ChrisU1 

 

Thanks for your post. The date format in AccountRight is determined by the Windows settings so this will need to be changed by:

 

1.Open Settings from the Start menu (Press the Windows Key and click the cog icon)


2. Click on Time & language.
3. Click on Date & time.


4. Under format click the Change date and time formats link.
5. Use the Short name drop-down menu to select the date format you want to see in the Taskbar.
6. Use the Short time drop-down menu to select the time format you want to see in the Taskbar.


7. Close the Settings app to complete the task.
 
Please let me know if you need further help.

Re: date preferences in MYOB

I have this problem too and it is nothign to do with Windows. Also it is not common for everything but my payslips have a USA date format that I would prefer to have an Aus format.

I see that this is a known issue - when will it be fixed?
