Having a proof of purchase document against transactions isn’t just handy, it’s important for compliance.

In MYOB Essentials , you can attach your files against files, like receipts and invoices, to your Spend money transactions as a reference to come back to, whenever you need. Then you can link your Spend money attachments to your Bank transactions – making it even easier to manage your purchases.

You can attach PDF, TIFF, JPEG or PNG file types, and the files must be less than 10MB in size.

Let's take a closer look:
