information applies to AccountRight 2016.

If you use AccountRight’s built-in emailing feature, your customers will automatically be able to view their invoices online.

And if you’ve set up MYOB PayDirect Online (Australia only)

help topic is about sending online invoices directly from AccountRight - for information about giving customers an easy way to pay your online invoices, see Online invoice payments.

When entering an invoice, take advantage of online invoicing to get your invoices to your customers faster. If your company file is online, you can access your file in a web browser and use eInvoicing.

Online invoicing enables you to email your invoices directly through AccountRight rather than a separate email program.

This means you can:

  • track all your invoice activity in one place - AccountRight
  • improve your cashflow
  • get paid faster

And if you’ve set up online payments, your customers can pay you online.

Here’s how it works:

Start using online invoicing

To use online invoicing, your company file needs to be online and set up for direct emailing. Learn how easy it is to set up your file for online access.

Once your file is online, set up direct emailing by clicking Sent Emails at the bottom of any command centre. An assistant will appear and help you set up your emailing preferences. Learn more about setting up AccountRight to send emails.

Handling payments

If you’ve set up

MYOB PayDirect Online

online payments, your customers can pay their invoices

using a VISA or MasterCard credit card

online.

Soon after they make a payment, the details will automatically appear in your company file. You’ll see the details of each payment in the Undeposited Funds account, and the payment will also be applied to the invoice it relates to - you don’t have to do a thing to record the payment.

MYOB will deposit each day’s receipts as one lump sum into the bank account you’ve selected to use for

MYOB PayDirect Online

online payments. To record that deposit in your company file, you just need to create a Prepare Bank Deposit transaction that includes all the payments you received via the

PayDirect Online

online payments service for that day. And that’s it!

Why do payments go into the Undeposited Funds account?

The Undeposited Funds account is used to track the individual payments received that haven’t been deposited yet. As MYOB will deposit the day’s takings as one lump sum deposit each day, you’ll also need to clear the Undeposited Funds account each day. Learn more about undeposited funds.

Get started

Online invoicing is automatically set up for you if you use AccountRight to send emails, instead of Outlook. If you're still using Outlook, learn how to email straight from AccountRight.

titleWhy is AccountRight telling me an email address is invalid - when it's not?

There's a known issue in AccountRight 2016.1 which prevents emails being sent if the email address domain is longer than 3 characters. The domain part of an email address is usually something like:

  • .com
  • .net
  • .org

Also, if sending emails to multiple addresses, make sure the addresses are separated by a semicolon without spaces.

The online invoicing function is configured to use web safe fonts. Non-standard fonts will be automatically adjusted to Arial

titleHow customers can see what they owe you

How customers can see what they owe you

When a customer receives an invoice from you, they can see a list of unpaid invoices that have been emailed to them. All they need to do is click on View unpaid invoices emailed to you to see their list.

Each customer will only have access to the unpaid invoices they have been previously emailed. That means the list they receive might not reflect all of their unpaid invoices.

Note: Invoices need to be emailed through AccountRight in order to appear on the list below. Invoices sent through another email service (e.g. Outlook) will not appear.
