The MYOB Practice Administrator needs to configure a few settings to give your practice access to some features in documents within MYOB Practice.

Configure your practice settings so you can choose the options when uploading or editing documents. This will also help with finding the documents quickly when you need them.

There are 3 settings you need to do in the Document Profiles

Service settings: Define service categories that your practice will use to organise documents based on what sort of job it falls under.
Period settings: Add the periods the practice works within. For example, Q1, Q2, Q3 or Jan, Feb, Mar, etc.
Document type settings: These are like labels for your documents. Add the options for what type of document your practice might need to search for. You can add, for example, Corporate, with Deeds & Constitution as subtypes.

title	Service settings

Define service categories that your practice will use to organise documents based on what sort of job it falls under. For example, allow your practice to tag a document as part of Auditing, Tax accounting or Financial planning work.

Have a think about the categories that your practice's documents could be grouped into. What sort of services does your practice typically provide, and which of these would have documents associated with them? You need to add these services. For example:

Tax & Financial	Administration
Corporate	Special Projects
Financial Planning	GST
Audit	STP/Payroll.

type	info

You can't delete a service, but you can rename it to mark it as obsolete. If you rename a service, the name is updated in the profile settings of any documents that you previously applied the service to.

We don't recommend changing the name of a service to something different to reuse it for something else. Instead, you can mark which service you don't want your practice to use any more by renaming it to have a code like zz at the start of the name.

title	Period settings

Add the periods the practice works within. For example, Q1, Q2, Q3 or Jan, Feb, Mar, etc.

UI Text Box

type	warning

Don't use the Period settings to set up years like 2021 and 2022. There's a special Year field your practice can select from when adding a document. You can't configure the years in the settings; they'll update automatically each year.

UI Expand

title	Document type settings

Add options that your practice can use to categorise documents by what type of document it is. For example, Correspondence or Legal.

When configuring the type settings, you see subtypes in a hierarchical structure. But when a user selects a type for a document they're uploading, the document type and subtype are displayed together.

Type options as displayed when configuring the settings, in a heirarchical structure, next to how types appear when selecting one for a document, top-level and child-level next to each other.

When you add a document to the Documents page, they can choose from either the document type or document type and subtype together. For example, Correspondence or Correspondence > Legal.
