Add-ons seamlessly connect to AccountRight (via the MYOB API) so you can do things like:

forecasting, and what if analysis
integrate with POS systems
get access to your info from other apps
set up an online store.

Add-ons can only connect to AccountRight if the MYOB Add-On Connector is running on your computer.

MYOB Add-On Connector is installed with AccountRight. You can start it by going to the MYOB>Add-Ons folder in the Windows Start menu. You only need to do this once—the next time you start Windows, the MYOB Add-On Connector will start automatically.
