Unable to display your client list or details?

If you're seeing the error, "There's nothing wrong with your AE/AO Live, but one of the services at your business is not running..." when attempting to load your clients list, there might be an issue at our end. These issues are usually resolved within minutes, so please try again later.

If you use MYOB AE/AO in your practice, you should check that the server on which your client database is stored is your practice server is on and has access to the internet. If that's all good, the MYOB OnTheGo API service on the server might have stopped. The following troubleshooting information will help you check it.

  1. Open your Windows Start menu and type services.
  2. Select Services.
  3. Locate the MYOB OnTheGo API Service.
  4. If the MYOB OnTheGo API Service is "Stopped", status is blank, you need to start it by right-clicking the service and selecting Start.

If the service:

  • starts, the issue should be fixed. You should check that the MYOB OnTheGo API Service starts after the next server restart.
  • remains in the "Starting" state, wait for 5 minutes for it to finish. If a message appears saying that a service is taking too long to start, click OK and wait a further 5 minutes.
  • doesn't start, force it to stop and then start it again.

Also note:

  • If the service takes more than 5 minutes to start, there are probably internet access issues. See your system administrator for advice.
  • The Startup Type should be set to Automatic (deferredDelayed Start). This will avoid problems with the service not being started in the future.
