What financial management capabilities make MYOB Advanced stand out?

Let’s talk money, specifically how MYOB Advanced helps you manage it. At the heart of the system is a fully featured general ledger that does more than just balance the books. You can track finances across multiple branches, entities or currencies without having to deal with spreadsheets that never quite behave.

Accounts payable and receivable are also automated to save you hours. You can schedule payments, set up reminders and get a clear view of what’s owed to you (and what you owe others). Bank feeds and reconciliations are handled within the platform, giving you up-to-date cash positions without jumping between systems. And if you're running a business that spans different states or operates in multiple currencies, MYOB Advanced handles that too, no add-ons or extra workarounds needed.

It’s flexible, scalable and surprisingly easy to use once you get going. Basically, it helps you spend less time on the books and more time on the business.

How does MYOB Advanced enhance financial reporting and compliance?

Now let’s zoom in on reporting. MYOB Advanced gives you tools to build reports that actually tell you something useful. You can customise layouts, schedule reports to land in your inbox and pull real-time data whenever you need it. Whether it’s a cash flow statement, a profit and loss report or a detailed audit trail, the platform makes sure you’re covered.

It also helps you stay on top of compliance. Built-in tools support BAS, GST and other ATO requirements without needing to bolt on third-party software. And with role-based access and version control, you can track who changed what and when, making it great for both peace of mind and audits.

The dashboards are the cherry on top. Instead of digging through numbers, you get a visual summary of how the business is performing, updated as the data flows in. So when someone asks how things are tracking, you won’t need to stall while pulling up a dozen reports.

FAQs

Answers to the most frequently asked questions.

Is MYOB Advanced suitable for medium-sized businesses?

Yes, it’s a great fit. MYOB Advanced is designed to scale with your business, offering flexibility across financials, inventory, payroll, and more. It’s especially useful for businesses that have outgrown entry-level accounting software and need something more robust without the complexity of a huge enterprise system.

How does MYOB Advanced help with compliance and audits?

It keeps your records clean and your processes traceable. MYOB Advanced includes features like automated tax calculations, audit trails, and role-based access, so you always know who did what and when. That kind of visibility makes audits less stressful and compliance a whole lot easier.
