Another company invoice with our business details was sent to my client when we sent an invoice electronically

We created an invoice as usual and emailed it as we usually do.

 

The client received the invocie and opened it only for it to be an invoice form 2019 and that was to a company we do not have on our system and items we do not sell.    So our myob accounts is getting mixed up with another company -  this is really not good.  What else is being shared without our knowledge?

Same thing keeps happening to me.  And it is freaking my customers out.  I have not been hacked but my accounts are merging with someone in WA and the NT - people not in my system.  I cannot get any one from myob on the phone, does anyone have any suggestions - very frustrating.

Hi @Princess_R 

 

I don't think you have understood the seriousness of what is being reported here - this should be escalated to senior management urgently for investigation and a 'fix'.

 

Emailing invoices works correctly 'most of the time' - so getting user to clear cache and do a test resend is of little comfort. The test email will no doubt work correctly. The BIGGER issue is why is this happening on MYOB systems? It's one thing to mixup up data from the user's company file - this would just be a software bug reading the wrong data - and this should obviously be fixed. But to mixup up details between 2 client's company files is a serious 'systems' issue. Clearing the cache doesn't solve than nor address the underlying cause.

 

MYOB needs to investigate - solve - and above all 'come clean' rather than sweeping it under the rug. Clients need to have confidence MYOB is doing the right thing and their systems are robust. Senior Management should be issuing a statement acknowledging the issue and advising it has been fixed!!

 

Regards

Gavin

Hi @gavin12345 

 

Thank you for sharing your insights. I understand how important it is for the business, and this is not an experience we want to provide to our customers. We strive hard to provide a seamless experience. 

 

To help customers with resolving their issue we would need to start with basic troubleshooting. To help identify the symptoms and figure out why something doesn't work as intended before we investigate further to provide a solution. We will surely escalate this issue with a proof that this is actually happening in the system. We are also asking some details and screenshots via private message in order for us to escalate.

 

Cheers,

Princess

Re: Another company invoice with our business details was sent to my client when we sent an invoi...

Hi,

I have just experienced this issue. Invoice was sent to my customer with another customers details on it with services that we do not supply.  $0 balance.  The customer that received this from us was very concerned and as were we.  I am wondering if anything Has been done about this on MYOB side.  As this post was a month ago and we have just experienced this issue I would have to think that MYOB has done nothing about this Problem

MYOB really needs to get on top of this as scammers are getting worse and this is a serious issue that needs to be fixed.
