MYOB Essentails does not have a comparative Balance sheet available. This is a huger oversight!

I understand that this issue has been raised before but seeing as the thread I found was from 2015 I thought it needed to be re addressed. What is happening with this? I cannot fathom how this is not treated as a major issue that needs to be fixed. Can I please get a update on a timeframe for when this will be available?

Thanks.

Hi Everyone

MYOB Essentials allows users to compare this year's Balance Sheet results with last year's Balance Sheet using the Compare to option.

The ability to compare a Balance sheet in Essentials with a previous year or period would be greatly advantageous.

Even with Account Right, I cannot get a comparative Balance sheet for 2019 to 2018, as I have not closed off 2018 yet.  So the report that displays is 2018 to 2017.   If there is something in advanced settings that I have not seen, I would appreciate someone sharing that with me, but I haven't found it. 

I agree this needs to be fixed.

Hi

 

Is is possible to have last eyar comparative when printing balance sheet from MYOB Essentials Accounting.

 

If not, is it possible to introduce such function in the reporting template as a matter or priority (simillar to the one introduced for Profit & Loss report).

 

Regards

Hi

 

Is it possible to introduce a function in balance sheet to allow us to comapre balance sheet to last year in the reporting template as a matter or priority (simillar to the one introduced for Profit & Loss reports). I know the last year comparative issue has been raised quite a lot since 2015, but never been actioned.

Balance Sheet - comparative - I notice that this issue has been raised on previous occasion. a balance sheet without a comparative is not a useful documents.
