You can create as many user accounts as you need to enable others to access your company file. You can also restrict the areas and information each user can access. You must be the company file administrator, or a user assigned the Administrator role, to create other users. If you don't sign on as an administrator, the User Access option won't appear in the Setup menu. If you're signed on as an Administrator but still can't see the User Access option, contact us for help. Note that the information in this topic is about adding users to an offline file in the new AccountRight. If you are using Classic AccountRight (v19), see Managing user accounts for information about adding users.

| User passwords can’t be recovered If a user forgets their password, an administrator can set a new password for them. See Change a user's company file access. If your file only has one administrator account, and you’ve forgotten its password, you'll need to send the file to MYOB to have the password reset. Contact MYOB for information on how to send your file, and the cost to reset the password. |
Select user roles - In the Company file roles list, select the roles you want to assign to this user account. For example, if you want to give the user access to all banking features, select the Banking role.

Some features require online administratorsYour company file doesn’t need to be online to use Bank Feeds, Pay Super and Single Touch Payroll, but if others need to access your company file to update your bank feeds, authorise super payments, or to process single touch payroll, you’ll need to invite them to become ‘online administrators’, and they will need to set up an MYOB account if they don’t already have one. An online administrator can work with any company file that's listed under the owner’s software serial number. In addition to this, an online administrator can: - update a bank feed if your file is not in the cloud
- start a Pay Super application, and be given permission to create or authorise super payments
- set up a file for online access
- purchase additional online files
- invite file users to access an online company file
- set up single touch payroll
- manage your AccountRight subscription
