Hi Everyone. Here are a couple of quick and easy things you can do if you are getting connection errors in AccountRight to try and resolve them. Flushing the DNS cache can fix any errors where the computer cannot contact our servers. This is done by: Switch off the Modem: Switch off the modem and leave it switched off for a couple of minutes. This might seem overly simple but don’t discount it, as the humble modem can accumulate a lot of information inside it. By switching the modem off and leaving it for a few minutes it allows the modem a chance to clear ensuring that you are connecting with a fresh connection. Flush the DNS cache on the computer: Press the Windows Key on your keyboard Type in: cmd In the list of results, right-click on cmd.exe and choose Run as Administrator A command prompt window should appear At the flashing cursor, type in: ipconfig/flushdns Hit Enter on your keyboard and a confirmation message should be displayed - If not, retry steps 4-5 and ensure the command is typed correctly After the confirmation message, close the window Close AccountRight then re-open the software Try a different connection to see if you can connect. Whether it’s a hotspot off your phone or you call your accountant to see if they can access your file on their end, this can help you work out whether the problem is with your connection or with AccountRight. As the antivirus monitors operations in real time this can impact internet traffic coming into and out of your computer. Temporarily disabling the antivirus can help you determine if it is causing issues with connecting to your file. Here is a great help article that can take you through how to do this: Speed and performance tips Still not connecting? Our help article, Error: Connection error, does give some additional troubleshooting steps and more information on how to resolve some connection errors.3.5KViews0likes0CommentsRestoring Company File - Error Message when uploading Company File
Hi I am using the new Cloud based - AccountRight Plus AU 2018.3 At some point in the last year, my Company File Name was changed to include a year "2018" and I have been trying to change it to something more generic, so that other users don't get concerned they are using an old file. I have followed all the steps on: https://community.myob.com/t5/AccountRight-Getting-started/Changing-a-company-data-file-name/td-p/518744 At step 5 (5. After that backup has been completed, go restore that file online using AccountRight Live (File>>Restore>>Online with AccountRight Live).), I continually get an error message when I am trying to restore the file with the new generic name. I am definately selecting the button restore: "online with AccountRight Live". It goes into the showing the progress bar showing it is restoring.

Hi, We are attmepting to import data into a new MYOB AR file which is proving to be quite frustrating. While some files import without error, many of them are subject to "Error -25: Invalid amount." I have attempted to modify various variables/fields to no availl. I also attempted to identify how these failed imports differ from those that were successful. One potential problem cell was the 'discount field' which was filled with negative values. When removed the error message changes to Error -28: Item is not sold. Please see attatched exported file, and the import log. Any solution would be gretaly appreicated.340Views0likes2Commentsunable to access Print/Email Invoices list 'Unable to Connect' error message
Dear MYOB support We've been experiencing ongoing issues of being unable to access the print/email invoices function, Accountright error message displays 'Unable to Connect' (please see my previous posts regarding same issue). We have been dealing with this same problem for MANY months, with great frustration. While the print/email invoices list is not able to be accessed we've had no choice but to painstakingly email every single invoice individually = huge waste or our staff's time. About a month or so ago though & to our immense relief & amazement, this function miraculously started working again....hallelujha!! ...& we were once again able to access the Print/Email Invoices list so we could 'select all' & bulk email all invoices for the day. SO much quicker! However & incredibly frustratingly, as of TODAY the Print/Email Invoices function has stopped working again. It happens regardless of which user login is used & from whichever of our offices we login from & over various internet providers - as has been the case previously. All other functions continue working. Yesterday it was working...today it is not, and we have not done anything differently. All past suggestions from MYOB support regarding this issue have not been able to fix it. Given that the function recently started working again, without us doing anything differenty, but has now stopped working again, can someone from MYOB please explain what is going on? It is incredibly frustrating to be battling this issue with what is such a basic & necessary function. I look forward to a response.339Views0likes2Comments
