MYOB just made a press release regarding integration and their latest generation product AccountRight 2011 & 2012.

Hundreds of software vendors just like c9 use an integration method called ODBC, which is provided by older MYOB products such as AccountRight v19.  But later generation product does not support this or any other alternative method; causing programmer community that MYOB have built up around it alot of frustration.

MYOB have just announced that they are giving up trying to get the existing method of integration to work and intend to develop a wholly new system of integration.   The impression I get is that this is still in ideation and design stage and they are soliciting input from people such as myself to help steer this technology direction.  So probably looking at least 6 months away before first beta version rolls and probably 12 months before having anything I would feel reasonably confident about using and integrating into c9.

In meantime, need to stick with v19 of AccountRight until MYOB fix their train wreck, which will probably not be fixed until AccountRight 2013 at the earliest.

Important Note:  Next generation SQL MYOB products, i.e. AccountRight 2011 and 2012 do not integrate.  MYOB's latest product will not integrate with any 3rd party software, not just c9.  MYOB have promised to rectify this oversight and make sure old integration features are eventually in the new product but no solution exists as yet.  In the meantime, make sure you get an older generation v19 based MYOB product. If you get the wrong one,  apparently MYOB can help you get an older one.  But keep in mind you cannot migrate data in newer product back to the older product.

The following explains how to synchronize C9 data into MYOB Account Right.

This step needs to be performed on the computer where MYOB is installed.  MYOB does not have to be open for the synchronization to work, but the process executes faster if it is - so it is recommended to open the company file in MYOB when doing this.

Synchronize from C9 to MYOB

On first synchronization, you need to tell C9 where MYOB is installed and what c9 suppliers map to what MYOB suppliers. You need to ensure that suppliers are created in MYOB first. C9 will not create suppliers for you.

To access synchronization goto:

  • Business
  • Synchronize

C9 now supports integration into MYOB Account Right.  For integration to work you need to setup your Company files so that it grants permission to c9 to access and synchronize information.

Premier edition of MYOB should not require these steps.

Firstly, you need to register online with MYOB to indicate to MYOB that you allow C9 to access your software.

Important note, copied from Quickbooks Australia website: The QuickBooks products which use the API identically are QuickBooks Pro, Premier and Enterprise only. EasyStart, Accounting and Plus do not permit integration.

To Synchronize C9 to Quickbooks you need to run C9 on a terminal where quickbooks is running. Open you your quickbooks file then run c9. In c9 goto:

  • Business
  • Synchronize
