Hate MYOB Business
The 'New Look MYOB Business" AKA copy of QBO and all the Woke renaming of things is just not good. Trying to cater for more end users and making life harder for everybody else. There are accounting industry terms that are used all over the world so I don't see why the names must be changed. Simplifying Menus are a good thing but when the names have changed, and deeper dives are needed to get where you need to be is silly. Just peeved with MYOB today after the outage and the constant "MYOB needs to close or restart" BS on AR desktop. Now that QBO side menus were copied maybe a look at QBO for my clients is in order, not to mention the big price difference.26Views0likes1CommentRe: I can't have 2 company files open at the same time anymore
If you are using AR desktop version with live data files. Make sure you have the AR icon on your desktop. Dbl click the icon and log in to the first account. Repeat the process from the icon for the subsequent data file. Doing it any other way will just replace the first one. OR - Login to the app.myob.com version and on the top right - Switch between companies. NB: The accounts need to be linked to the same login.793Views0likes7CommentsRe: I can't have 2 company files open at the same time anymore
Strange, I daily use 3 AR desktop files open at the same time? It should allow access via login to each file or if you are a partner and have both files linked to your account it should work. I would like to hear if you found a solution?1.1KViews0likes11CommentsRe: Myob Accountright Server Edition - New Upgrade 17th Mar 2022
The statement "certainly gives you more control over what goes to the ATO". Well it is not up to the public/business to decide what they want to send to the ATO and if STP is what is required, I don't see why having your file online makes a difference to facilitate this as the file is not sent to the ATO, just the STP data, based on the criteria set? If the ATO want to see your books, they will request them and not try access your MYOB file. Yes, agree if you work on a farm or area where there is no internet service a 'local file is great'. With MYOB Business which will replace MYOB AR eventually, there is no option for a 'local data' file. Big brother will be in your living room soon, watch out.1.7KViews0likes4CommentsRe: AccountRight 2017.1 now available
susan64 There are companies and advisors that run different versions of the software for different reasons therefore the different icons and versions. The data file being in the cloud and software on the PC is in fact a designed feature so you can work offline when the internet is not good enough or in areas where there is no internet or speed is needed, again a design feature, not a flaw. Many businesses do not want the data file in the cloud at all and MYOB AR etc. caters for this. If you want cloud only access MYOB Essentials is a great alternative with powerful features.44KViews2likes0Comments
