Working outside of the office shouldn’t affect your processes. Now with the MYOB Invoice for AccountRight app, you can record time-billing activity slips and create quotes, invoices, customers and suppliers on your mobile device. The best part? It's all linked to your AccountRight online company file, so your business info is always up to date and easily accessible.

You need to have an existing online AccountRight file to use the app.

Take a look at what you can do with the app:

 

Get started

If you have a compatible Android or iOs device, all you need to do is download the MYOB Invoice app and you're ready to go:

The first time you log in to MYOB Invoice, enter your my.MYOB account details . You’ll need to set a 4-digit security PIN, which will make future log-ins faster and easier.

Once you're logged in, and have selected the online company file you want to work with, you're ready to manage your invoices, quotes, and contacts. Use the panel at the bottom to navigate between these screens. If you have multiple company files, you can switch between them from the Settings screen.

(If you ever need to change your PIN, just tap Forgotten your password? on the PIN entry screen. Re-enter your my.MYOB details and change the PIN.)

Invoices

The Invoices screen is the first screen that appears when you log in to the app. You can also access it from the panel at the bottom.

From here, you can view, edit, create and send invoices on the go. Use the All, Overdue, and Paid tabs to see your invoices (with due amounts), and keep track of which invoices are yet to be paid, or already paid. You can also search for invoices.

Activities

Activities

An activity slip is used to track the costs of a time-based task or service provided by your business, like consulting by the hour. You then use the information in the activity slip to bill the customer using a time billing invoice.

With the MYOB Invoice app, you can record activity slips with your phone – handy for jobs outside the office.

In order to use this feature you just need to do some one-off setup in AccountRight. See Billing for time.

You can use the app to log your activity slips in two ways:

1. Use the timer to record your activity as you're working
