The entity name or business name (trading name) you selected when you first set up your MYOB Atlas website will appear in your website footer by default.

You can change the name that appears in your website footer if:

  • you have more than one business name registered to your ABN, and want to switch from one to another.
  • you have an entity name listed in your footer, but want to display your business name instead (or vice versa).
    For example, if you're a sole trader that conducts business under your business name, you might want to display your business name in the footer, instead of your first and last name (entity name).

To change the entity name or business name that appears in your website footer, follow the steps below.

ImageiconImage 1. Click My account in the Settings toolbar.
ImageiconImage 2. In the Account information section of the My account page, click Edit account information.

3. Select the entity name or business name you want from the drop-down list in the Business name field.

Note that if you haven't registered a business name in your state or territory, you'll only see your entity name in the drop-down list.

When you're finished, click Save at the bottom of the page. The name in your website footer will be updated instantly.
