What we released in September

Banking

See balances due on matched invoices and bills
When you match a bank transaction to an invoice or bill in the smart reconciliation view of the Bank transactions page, you can now see the amount applied and any balance still due. If the invoice or bill is fully paid, you’ll only see the amount applied.

This makes it easier to check that you’ve matched the right record and see what still needs to be paid without opening the invoice or bill.

Match bank transactions faster
When you expand a bank transaction in the smart reconciliation view of the Bank transactions page, Match to existing record now opens by default if there’s an existing transaction available to match. If there isn’t a match available, Select categories opens instead.

This helps you get to the most relevant option sooner when matching bank transactions.

Uploads

Uploads are now easier to search and scan
Uploads now has new search, filter and sort options, so you can get to the document you're after without scrolling through the whole list. You'll also see the supplier name, upload source and extracted tax amount right there in the uploads list, so you can check what's what without opening every document to find out.

Try the new Uploads (Beta) experience
Uploads (Beta) is a simpler way to manage documents for purchases. Click Try it now in the banner on the Uploads screen to opt in. You can switch back to Classic Uploads at any time.

AI BAS (Australia only)

Employers can now prepare BAS with PAYG withholding
PAYG withholding and PAYG instalments are now included in the BAS report, including W1–W5 amounts. Employers can review these alongside their GST information, giving a clearer view of what needs attention and reducing the need for manual checks.

Save time with smarter GST recommendations
AI BAS now learns from the GST treatments and personal-transaction decisions you make. It uses your past actions and codes to recommend GST treatments for similar transactions in future BAS periods. The more you use AI BAS, the better it learns your workflow. You can also select a category while reviewing a transaction, making it easier to complete your BAS while keeping you in control.

Payroll (Australia only)

Set up Pay Super with a WPN
If your business has a Withholding Payer Number (WPN) but doesn’t have an Australian Business Number (ABN), you can now set up Pay Super.

This makes it easier to pay super through MYOB and meet the ATO's Payday Super requirements.

MYOB Assist coming soon to New Zealand

MYOB Assist brings receipt capture, quoting and invoicing together in one app. MYOB Assist keeps your work connected to your MYOB business, so you can capture receipts, create quotes and send invoices while you’re on the go.

Reminder - changes to online payment surcharges and fees (Australia only)

From 1 October 2026, you can no longer surcharge your online payment fees to customers. We've removed the surcharging options from MYOB Business for online payments so you don't need to turn anything off manually. More about the RBA surcharge changes

Also, from 1 October 2026 the online payment fees changed to 1.7% of each invoice or instalment paid + $0.25c per transaction (inc. GST). More about online payment fees

Action centre (Australia only, AI BAS users and early adopters)

Start the day ahead of it
Action centre brings together what needs your attention across your business, so you can see what to do next and get on with your day. See the most important tasks and insights in one place, so you spend less time hunting for what needs doing and more time running your business.

From transactions to allocate and overdue invoices to follow up, to upcoming key dates, it puts your priorities in one clear place. And when MYOB has already done some of the groundwork - like tracking AI BAS progress or surfacing Business Insights - you can review it, take action and stay in control. You can choose Action centre or Dashboard as your home page.

Action centre will eventually be available for all Australian and New Zealand MYOB Business users.

Easier AccountRight upgrades

When an older version of AccountRight is decommissioned, we’ll upgrade your company file for you. You’ll only need to update the AccountRight app when prompted – there’s no need to manually upgrade your company file or manage a file-version change. Once the app is updated, you can continue working as usual.

What you need to do – When prompted, click Restart AccountRight or Update now to install the latest version of the AccountRight app.

API developers

Faster purchase bill retrieval in the public API
We’ve improved the performance of the purchase bill endpoints when retrieving bills with many lines. This helps third-party apps retrieve large numbers of bills more reliably.

Bug fixes

(Australia only) When a working holiday maker enters their country of origin during self-onboarding, it’s now saved to their employee card. This helps payroll apply the correct tax rates and rules.
