    Troubleshooting

    If a staff member’s name has changed, they will need to update their details by logging into my.MYOB and updating their name on the Contact details page. Their name will be updated automatically the next time they log into Practice Online.

    When you add a staff member, the role assigned to them in my.MYOB (Administrator or General) will apply to Practice Online too. To edit their role, log in to my.MYOB and choose My Account > Maintain Users.

    If you delete a staff member who has Administrator access to Practice Online, they will be given General user access by default if you add them back.

    If you need to change their role, log in to my.MYOB and choose My Account > Maintain Users.
