To export MYOB AccountEdge data for use with MYOB Accountants Office

If you haven’t already read the Your Data File Overview, see Exporting information for use with MYOB Accountants Office for more information.

  1. Make a backup of your MYOB data file.

  2. Choose MYOB Accountants Office Link from the File menu. (You also can click the MYOB Accountants Office Link button in the General Ledger Command Center.) The Reporting Period window appears.

  3. Select the period of the transactions you wish to be exported. (To select a range of months, hold down the mouse button while you move the cursor over the range of months.)

    It’s important not to include dates you’ve included in a previous export, since this would result in double-counting your transactions. As a precaution, we recommend that you tell your accountant the period you’ve selected.

  1. Choose the method you wish to use to send the information. If you choose the e-mail option, enter a linked card, if you wish.

  2. Click the Prepare Files button.

    If you chose the e-mail option, your email program will be launched and the email program will attach the file to an email message. You’ll then send your email as you normally do.

    If you chose to save the file to disk, a dialog box appears, allowing you to enter a name and location for the export file. You can change the file name if you like, but you must use the .TXT extension in order for the file to be opened properly by MYOB Accountants Office. Make entries in the dialog box, then click OK to begin creating the export file.
