If you're the business owner (typically the person who set up the MYOB subscription) and you have the Administrator role, you can invite one or more accounting advisors to access your company file at any time. So long as they are an MYOB Partner, an accounting advisor could be your accountant or any other person that you may want to help you with your business. Inviting an accounting advisor to become a registered user will allow them access to all of your business information online. There’s no need to send any files, and you can continue entering invoices, payments, and so on as normal. Advisors are different to regular users as they can allow multiple people in their business to access your file without requiring user accounts for each accountant that needs access. This doesn't mean anyone in their practice can access your company file information – only people who have been invited to access your online file can access it, and the domain name of their My Account email address must match that of the advisor's. | UI Text Box |

| | For security reasons, your file can only be accessed by employees in your advisor's business who have a My Account with a domain name that matches the advisor's. For example, if the advisor's email address is joe@mypractice.com, only employees in your advisor's business who log into My Account with a "mypractice.com" email address can access your file. They also must have been invited to access your file. |
