Printing previous reports in MYOB

Do a backup before you try this.

Go to File - Start a New Year - Start a New Financial Year. Continue through the next few screens until you see the Current financial year and a box showing the New Financial Year. Say your current financial year is 2013 and the New Financial Year shows as 2014. Change this to 2012 and then continue through the screens til the end. Then check your financial year under Setup - Company Information, you will find it now shows 2012. Enter the transactions you need, then go through the process again to change to 2013.

This is an undocumented feature un-supported by MYOB. Try with caution - not aware of any serious consequences but a few I know have done this.

Changing your system date and opening MYOB is a sure fire way to get locked out. MYOB records the date each time you open it. If the date goes backwards, it locks you out. Part of their protection.

Change the date on your PC to 2009 while you do it. Should work.

MYOB suggestions
It appears that you have a corruption in the data file. This can only be corrected by the technical support team at MYOB. You will need to give them a call. At this time of year you could be on hold for quite some time. From memory a repair of a file is an additional cost to your MYOB subscription.

Another alternative would be to restore a previous backup and ensure that the backup does not have the same error and reenter the missing data.

MYOB requires that you have a default printer selected on your computer system. If no printer driver is installed, when opening a company file, a printer error #5 is displayed.

Highlight your Printer and go to File on then Menu bar/Set as default.and Turn off user account control if you're using vista. It's in your security center in the control panel. Turning this off should fix the printer error 5 issue .

You would have to post the entry as last financial year, just to keep it all ligit. After you have done so check that your retained years earnings are correct!.

Hello,
You are going to do the opposite.
Not exporting from excell to myob but to import data of excell from myob)
You might need to save your excell data as an older office 2000 or office 97 version or even comma or tab sepperated file so myob could read it, it depends on your myob version and if it possible.
Thank you for using agadycom.
