Hi All
Thanks for your post.
We're sorry to hear that you are having an issue when viewing the invoice.
Generally, the "This is awkward" error message in MYOB typically indicates an issue with accessing the online portal for viewing or managing invoices. When you encounter this error, here are steps you can take to troubleshoot the problem:
- Refresh the Page, start by refreshing the page or reopening MYOB and attempting to access the online portal again
- Clear Browser Cache and Cookies, clear your browser's cache and cookies, as stored data can sometimes cause conflicts. After clearing the cache, close and reopen your browser, then try to access the portal again.
- Try a Different Browser, if the issue persists, try accessing the portal using a different web browser. This can help determine if the problem is browser-specific.
- Check your Internet Connection, ensure you have a stable and active internet connection. A weak or interrupted connection can lead to errors when accessing online services.
- Disable Browser Extensions, some browser extensions or add-ons can interfere with web page functionality. Disable any extensions that may be causing conflicts and retry accessing the portal.
- Verify the Invoice Link, Double-check the invoice link you received in your email. Ensure that the URL starts with "https://" and matches the official MYOB website.
- Security Software, Check if any security software or firewall settings on your computer are blocking access to the MYOB portal. Adjust your security settings as needed.
- Alternative Access, if accessing the portal directly from the invoice link is problematic, consider accessing the MYOB portal by signing in directly to your MYOB account (if available). Once logged in, you may be able to find and view the invoice from your account dashboard.
The steps provided above should help us diagnose the issue and resolve it.
Please let us know if you require any further assistance with this.

Hi, the problem has only just arisen. I have already been through these steps earlier today. Still the problem exists.
Hi All
Thank you for updating us.
If the above steps did not work for you and you still received the same error message, kindly check the invoice that was sent. Generally, the "this is awkward" error message happens when there is an invalid character in the invoice number and a missing country on the linked customer card. To correct the situation, kindly remove the invalid characters from the invoice number as it should be numeric only. Also, please ensure that the customer card has a country set.
Please let us know how it goes. We are delighted to assist you.
Best regards,
Doreen
Hi Doreen, that still hasn't fixed the problem. I go back to previous invoices which worked fine before and are now showing the same problem.
Hi Roig,
I'm sorry to hear that you're facing this issue. To resolve it, I recommend clearing your AccountRight cache: Clearing the AccountRight Cache
Please do let me know how you go on this.
Regards,
Earl
