What's the status of my application?

It can take up to 10 days for your bank feed to become active (but it's usually much sooner). Learn more about tracking the status of your bank feed application.

Once you've applied for the bank feed, you can choose which one of your MYOB Essentials accounts you want the transactions to appear in.

  1. When your bank feed is ready, you'll receive a notification on your dashboard, asking you to link the new bank feed to an account. Click the link in the dashboard notification. 

  2. The Manage bank feeds page appears, with the new bank feed highlighted in pink.

  3. From the Select account dropdown list, choose the MYOB Essentials account you want to link the bank feed to. MYOB Essentials accounts that are already linked to a bank feed do not appear in the list.
    The account you choose will be the bank or credit card account you’ve set up in MYOB Essentials.

    For example, if you’re setting up a bank feed for your main transaction account, you might choose to link it to the 1-1000 Cheque Account in MYOB Essentials. Similarly, if you’re setting up a bank feed for your Visa card, you might choose to link it to the 2-1040 Visa account in MYOB Essentials.

  4. In the confirmation box, click Yes to confirm your choice of linked account. 

  5. The bank feed is linked to the selected account, and bank transactions will start appearing in the linked account. You can view the transactions from your bank feed on the Bank transactions page.
