Bank feeds allow information from your financial institution to be sent straight to MYOB so you can save time on your data entry. Tell me more about bank feeds.
To set up a bank feed for an ASB account:
- you need to be the online owner (this is usually the person who set up your MYOB subscription) or an Online Admin user
- ensure bank feeds can be set up for your ASB account (check the list of supported accounts)
- have your MYOB account details handy.
There are two parts to setting up a bank feed:
1. Apply Start the application process in MYOB, then finish via ASB's online banking system. Alternatively you can send us an application form. | > | 2. Link Once your bank feed is active, choose the MYOB account the bank feed applies to. |

How long will it take to approve my bank feed?
Internet banking applications are usually processed by ASB within 24 hours, but it can take a couple of days. Uploaded application forms can take 1 - 2 weeks to be processed. If you haven't heard from us after this time, give our bank feed team a call on 0800 60 69 62 (New Zealand).
We'll send you an email when your bank feed has been approved, or you can track the status of your bank feed application.
Once it's ready, you need to link the bank feed to the corresponding account in MYOB—see the next task for details.
2. Link the bank feed to an account in MYOB
Once you've been notified (by email) that your bank feed has been approved and the first bank feed has arrived, you'll need to link the bank feed to the corresponding account in MYOB. This will be the account in MYOB that your bank transactions will be fed into.
To link an account to the bank feed
- In MYOB, go to the Banking menu and choose Manage bank feeds. The Manage bank feeds page opens, listing all the bank feeds you have set up and their status.
In the Linked account column for the new bank feed, choose an account from the list. This will be the account that the bank feed transactions will be imported to. You can only select accounts set up as a bank account or credit card.
- Click Save to finish.
What happens next?
Your bank transactions will automatically be fed into MYOB at the frequency specified by ASB for your account type.
You can then allocate those transactions to the applicable accounts or match them to existing transactions. You can even set up rules to make it happen automatically. Find out all about Working with bank transactions.
