In order for an employee to access MYOB’s online services and AccountRight or Essentials files linked to clients in Client Accounting, they must have an MYOB Login.

To control employee access to the Edit my.MYOB Details window, change the #Employee #Edit my.MYOB details task permission in the Employee group for the Central product. By default, this task permission is granted to all users.

For example, if an employee without an MYOB Login tries to access an AccountRight Live file using Client Accounting, they will be prompted to specify an MYOB Login before continuing.

An employee’s MYOB Login must be unique within each MYOB database. You cannot have 2 employees with the same MYOB Login in the same database.
If an employee is required to access 2 different databases within the same practice, the employee can use the same MYOB Login for each database.
