Each month we release improvements, new features and bug fixes to MYOB Business.

What's new in February 2022

Electronic payments

• Quickly identify and add missing account details when creating bank (ABA) files.
  You'll see an indicator confirming if the bank details are complete in the account you're paying from. If something's missing, you can easily add it.

Sales

• Email invoice PDFs.
  When you email an invoice a PDF version is automatically attached.

• Set and forget invoice options.
  MYOB Business remembers whether or not your invoice amounts are tax inclusive and whether you email a copy to yourself. Next time you create an invoice it will use the same settings.

• Duplicate or email an invoice from a locked period, without having to change lock date settings.

• [eInvoicing early adopters only] Type field has been added back to the Invoices page.EARLY ADOPTERS
  
  SHOULD WE BE COMMUNICATING THIS GENERALLY?

Reports

• Quickly see if you owe money to ATO or IRD, or whether you'll get a refund.
  The GST Return report now shows Payment or Refund in the Total column.

• Know who owes you money and how much is due when you run the Receivables with tax report.
  Expand the report to see the transactions that make up each customer's balance, along with their ageing period. Reconcile your receivables more easily using the Receivables account and Out of balance amounts.

• See who you owe money to and how much is due when you run the Payables with tax report.
  Expand the report to see the transactions that make up each supplier balance, along with the ageing period. Reconcile your payables more easily using the Payables account and Out of balance amounts.

• Reports - General Ledger: Tax amount column now in the expandable list and in summary view. General Ledger updated with the ‘Tax amount’ column now available in the summary and is set as default for both summary and expanded views, brining it in line with Old Essentials.

• See how much tax is included in account balances and in the transactions that make these

When I'm looking at my account activity I want to see the tax amounts so that I can get a more complete picture of what makes up my account balances.

Bug fixes

ARE THE FOLLOWING TWO BUGS RELATED?
