When you prepare reports, you can easily modify the format, content and appearance of a report, and export it to a different format. You can also create customised reports that suit the specific needs of your business and save them for future use.

AccountRight has many reports that help you see where your business is at, and what you need to give attention to. If a report you need isn't there, you can have a go at customising one of the default reports to include the information you need. Or, export the information you need and open the export file in Excel.

    Where is the session report that was in AccountRight v19?

    Unlike the old Session Report, the Journal Security Audit report can be produced at any time, even after closing and reopening the company file. It also provides a lot more detail about the changes in your company file, such as detail of any deleted transactions or changed preferences. And you can filter it by transaction type and user ID.

    Why do I see the "No information to display" message when running a report?


    If you're trying to run a report and a message advises "There's no information to display", try the following:

    • Check the date range you've specified for the report.
    • Check the filters you've specified for the report. For example, you might be trying to report on an account which has no transactions against it. Try reporting on all accounts.

    Seeing this message when running the Analyse Inventory (Summary) report?

    Our Tech Support Team can fix the issue. Contact product support.

    If the message persists, try deleting the contents of the Cache folder on your computer. This folder contains temporary files which can sometimes prevent some reports displaying correctly.


     

    The Cache folder is located here:

    C:\Users\user.name\AppData\Local\MYOB\AccountRight\20xx.x\Cache

    ('user.name' refers to the name of the Windows user, and '20xx.x' is your AccountRight version)

    Why is the 'Export to Excel' button greyed out?

    The Export to Excel button is greyed out if you don't have a supported version of Microsoft Excel installed (2010 or later). You can export the report as a CSV or TSV file after displaying the report, and then open the file using Excel.

    Using Office 365? Make sure Excel is installed on your computer and not accessed via a web browser.

    Also, if you've selected a custom report, the Export to Excel button is unavailable in the Index to Reports window, however you can export the report to Excel after displaying it.

    Why won't reports print on a specific printer?

    If you're still having trouble displaying information in a report, contact MYOB Tech Support. Call 1300 555 123 (Australia) or 0508 328 283 (New Zealand).

    printing from AccountRight, make sure your printer driver is up to date. You can check the printer manufacturer's website for driver updates. Also see Printing from AccountRight for additional troubleshooting options.

    A temporary workaround is to save your report as a PDF file which you'll then be able to print.
