    Having just got the dreaded failure to confirm company data and joining this user group to get the codes in due course, I'm wondering if there's any annual input for HMRC tax codes and stuff related to PAYE that was on the original and had to be done annually.
    I hate to say it but I threw the disc away when I was blocked from my company confirmation. I have Version 16 so if anyone has a copy of the tax tables I would really appreciate it and anything that gives next years 2012-13 tables would be more than welcome.

    I'm sorry to say that tax tables are probably beyond our skills at present.  There are all sorts of options for Payroll calculation software, but QTAC is one I would recommend.  My own firm outsources Payroll calcs for all its clients to an external accountant that specialises in this. 

    Any other suggestions from members for good payroll systems?

    MYOB ODBC
    I think I sussed out what went wrong with my usual online confirmation process that drove me here in the first place.
    Sometime a couple of weeks ago I think I may have picked up a warning from my anti-virus or
    Malwarebytes telling me of a suspicious behaviour from MYOB ODBC driver and I think it may have stopped the process.
    I have since installed MYOB onto my laptop, only yesterday, and it installed clean and worked without any problem so presumably the ODBC was working OK with this copy.
    This little revelation may be of some use to others and it may also be an easy way to disable any potential online confirmation by default from within MYOB. Just disable the ODBC driver somewhow.

    Now, as far as forums go, this one seems pretty quiet.
    I'm sure you all have lots of more important things to do but some interaction may be useful to MYOB users with limited knowledge or needing assistance.
    I for one have a query that I would love someone to answer. I can't find an answer within the manual.
    I'll present a few things first to bring all the facts together to make sense.
    Using V16.
    My sales that go through my PDQ are shown as being accrued to my Cash account. Initially at least. the next day, the bank (HSBC) shows the payment received as a Duality receipt. For my account to balance I then show a transfer from my cash account to HSBC Current Account which is where the Duality is shown, This balances the accounts. That part is easy.
    My problem is knowing what to do when I end the day with a minus figure on the PDQ.
    The HSBC Duality shows the payment in the Payments column rather than Receipts. No problem with that either. I know what it is and know that the clawback is due to the negative amount from the PDQ total at the end of the day.
    I'm stuck with how I show this in my accounts though.
    I can't figure out a way to do a minus on a transfer from the HSBC current account to the Cash account.
    I might be doing things in a complicated way and anyone who knows firstly what I'm talking about, then can offer a solution would be welcome if they could let me into the secret.

    The simplest solution might be to post the transfer between the 'cash account' and the bank account is with a spend money transaction from cash to bank.  When the negative receipt or credit comes in I think that you could simply reduce the value of the transaction.  Does this help?

    We are running MYOB Accounting Plus 2009 v18 with 5 licenses. Needing to upgrade PC's and so transfer MYOB program onto new pc's. Just after some help /advise on how to go about this / any potential issues?

    We basically downloaded this online at the time (via an e-mail from Mamut dated 01/04/2009). We don't have the downloaded file saved however, on searching the Mamut site I have found following link:

    http://www.mamut.com/uk/support/search/faq.asp?lcid=2057&id=02024764

    ... and on clicking the download link, saved a file called 'AccPlusv18Apr09.exe'. Haven't run this file yet but is it possible for someone to ratify this is correct and we should (once we input manual confirmation codes) be able to set this up ok?

    Many Thanks
    Mark

    Further to the above, we have installed MYOB Accounting Plus 2009 v18 using the above link. It does seem to have installed fine although it is regularly crashing on the new pc's. Does anyone have any thoughts or advice on this? The new pc's are running Windows 7 which we thought might be an issue - does anyone else have experience with Windows 7? Any help much appreciated!

    Anyone at all with experience of using MYOB with Windows 7? (especially Accounting Plus 2009).

    Crashing all the time. Have tried Windows XP mode within Windows 7 but still crashing. Help please!

    Mark, if it helps we are using version 14 of MYOB accounting, and have one licence and have been using Windows 7 for almost one year without any problems whatsoever, however we had quite a few problems with other software when we upgraded to Windows 7, and it seemed most of our problems were due to antivirus systems interferring with the processes.

    Thanks Martin, that at least gives me some hope that we can potentially get it working!

    So with the horrid reconfirmation request now giving me just 7 more days to do something I have found this group. (the error message tells me to contact MYOB Customer Service and quote Error -1 when discussing it with them ;) Added to that the VAT inspector is visiting next week. Joy of joys!

    Just not quite clear from your home page ("MYOB have announced they are delaying their decision to stop the confirmation process") whether this is MYOB or something specific to do with my programme/set up?

    Happy to send you the £35 and good on you for doing it - just don't want to be wasting any more time if it is something to do with my set up. I have had to move it to an older computer running Mac OS X 10.4.11 because my version of MYOB (14) wasn't going to work on OS X 10.7 which the rest of our computers is using. Not sure if it had something to do with that. Let me know and I will get the £35 transferred to you if you think you can help solve the problem.

    I have used the HMRC recommended web based system payroo.com since Mamut withdrew ongoing payroll support to MYOB accounting software. It is exceptionally versatile and it's FREE!

    And before anyone asks: "Payroo has integrated the HMRC RTI related changes into the existing payroll software to comply with the new regulations and will be available for all employers registered with HMRC RTI Pilot from April 2012. Employers can continue using payroo services the same way without changing anything."
