Spend money: Allow duplicate reference numbers

Reference #s should be able to be duplicated.  Another field required called "transaction #"

    MYOB Essentials does not allow for duplicate reference numbers on Spend Mony Transactions, irrespective of the bank account being used. So if you have already used cheque number 1000 in your CBA account, you cannot use cheque number 1000 in your NAB account., etc. This would be a fairly common occurence where businesses still use cheques and have multiple bank accounts.

     

    Rather than reject the transaction outright, can we have a warning, or better still check the uniqueness only within a specific bank account?

      Another problem is that there is no way of searching by Spend money transaction number. The client is often using personal funds to pay small amounts and when I have a second screen opened during bank transaction entering, it constantly comes up with "This numebr has been used". I am unable to locate a report that lists all SM reference numbers, so I can use one that is not duplicate

    Hi Everyone

    MYOB Essentials allows for duplicate reference numbers to be entered on Spend Money transactions, if required.
