Updating MYOB Settings

Modified on Mon, 30 Jun at 10:50 AM

If you have updated your chart of accounts, tax rates or tracking categories in MYOB, these won't automatically update in WorkGuru and will need to be re-synced.


To update WorkGuru's with the latest settings in MYOB, open the MYOB dashboard (Accounting -> MYOB) and select Get Tax Rate and Get Chart of Accounts as required.

Once you have re-synced the updated Xero data, click Set Defaults or Accounting -> Settings to open the Update Accounting Settings dashboard.  The setting page allows you to manage the Xero integration settings.
